la colomba pasquale (dolce)

A typical symbol of Easter in Italy is a cake in the shape of a dove - colomba . The Easter dove - colomba pasquale - has its roots in the distant past. Around the middle of the sixth century a raised ring-shaped loaf was offered to Alboin, the king of the Lombards, who was besieging the city of Pavia. The ingredients (eggs, flour, and yeast) were simple compared to those of today, which include butter, sugar, and candied fruit.
