Focaccia is according to legend a bread enriched with butter, eggs and sugar. The idea seems to be from a baker from Treviso who worked his bread dough with these ingredients, resulting in a soft and light cake, to be given to family and friends as gifts at the holidays.
Pasticceria Perbellini, respecting this regional tradition, offers it covered with soft Italian almond icing, guaranteeing 48 hours of rising time.
Unlike the classic colomba, the Venetian focaccia dough contains a reduced amount of butter, which makes it thinner and fluffier.
Sweet available only during the Easter season.

MORE DETAILS
Focaccia Veneziana is a leavened product prepared only during the Easter season, similar to the dove in its dough, but cylindrical in shape and with an almond-based glaze.
Although it is a niche product compared to the better-known Colomba, it has always been a flagship product of Pasticceria Perbellini, appreciated by many also because of its elegant packaging.
Like all our leavened pastries, this cake requires more than 48 hours of rising and relies on simple, natural ingredients such as flour, eggs, butter, sugar, sourdough and almonds. All ingredients are carefully selected by our pastry chefs, maintaining the same Perbellini quality year after year.
Before being baked, each Focaccia is hand-covered with an icing, which imparts the unmistakable sense of crunchiness.
After it is baked, the product is allowed to rest for several hours, then hand-wrapped by our staff members, completing an entirely artisanal cycle.
