Where to find Panettone and Pandoro in Japan in 2024? Due to the high interest in the topic, here is a guide series divided into the following categories:
1. Independent Bakeries & Boutiques (this article)
2. Chains & Department Stores
3. Restaurants & Online Shops
Panettone and Pandoro, the most classic Italian Christmas treats, have become a festive favorite even in Japan. Whether one prefers the traditional Milano / Verona recipes or a more modern version with chocolate or fruits, there are plenty of options for this holiday season. From department stores to independent bakeries and online shops, finding panettone in Japan became as easy as German stollen.
Unfortunately, prices have grown this year, but small panettone is available, too, for a little price. Italians shouldn’t compare prices with their home country to avoid a heart attack, but I am sure the majority will eat at least a bite to really feel the Christmas time.
If you plan to visit independent shops or smaller bakeries, it’s a good idea to call ahead to check availability. These places often prioritize freshness, and their limited stock can sell out quickly. Note that the price range can refer to a single slice or 1kg panettone, depending on the product offered.
Read on to discover the best places to pick up your panettone (or pandoro) this year!
