Will you do all yours online? Will you support the independents? Will you still pop in to your local shops? We are all different. But here's what we think will be the best selling gifts this Christmas.

This year we have the beautiful classic Panettone from Loison. It stands out for the quality of all Loison guaranteed ingredients and for the special processing, which takes place according to the most modern and advanced systems, but respecting the long and slow leavening times typical of the ancient Italian pastry tradition. The result is a soft and highly digestible dough. Dubbed one of the best panettone you will ever taste by several national press, this one really is a Christmas must have.
