The recipe in this entry was first published in "Beary Delights" a cookbook put together by the staff at Pierre De Coubertin School in St.Leonard, Quebec. The private publication was printed in 1996; it was used to raise funds. The panettone recipe was contributed for the use in "Beary Delights" by Pina Panuto. A staff member, who recently retired from his job at Pierre de Coubertin School, suggested that the recipes published in "Beary Delights" could be re-printed on this website............. P.S. In Montreal, Quebec "Pane degli Angeli" is sold in most Italian pastry shops. For those in other parts of North America who might be unfamiliar with this product "Pane degli Angeli" is a vanilla-flavored baking powder. On its package it is advertised as "Vaniglinato per dolci, agente lievitante, lievitazione istantanea, lievitazione istantanea." The package does not indicate how much baking powder is inside, but it appears to be around 9 grams. Photo and notes: Mary Melfi.
