The Take

Bauli Panmoro Chocolate Pandoro industrialises a beloved Italian tradition with syrup and additives. Butter and eggs provide some real fats, but the rest of the list screams factory shortcut.

Naturally leavened dough sounds artisanal until the glucose-fructose syrup, palm oil, mono/diglycerides, flavourings and preservatives take over. Chocolate chips add soy lecithin for good measure.

The Verdict

This pandoro trades heritage for shelf life and convenience. The few honest ingredients cannot save the industrial syrup load that defines the product.

Skip the package. Buy butter, eggs, flour and make your own — single-ingredient control, zero industrial syrup.
