Ciambellone della nonna (grandma’s cake) Much more than a cake: it’s the tradition and the heritage of our grandparents

Ciambellone is a simple, genuine cake, typical of the historical and cultural heritage of local families. Also in this case, you will find an endless number of different versions, one for each grandmother in the Marche region.

Sift the flour and mix it with yeast; then mix the compound with milk, melted lard or butter, eggs beaten with sugar and lemon peel. The result is a soft, fluffy dough. Shape in a roll and place in a buttered, floured baking pan. The mix can be enriched with raisins, candied fruit, nuts and almonds. Brush it with egg yolk and bake in the oven.
