The new bagel shop in our neighborhood carries a nice selection of very special chocolate.
in't veld is one of them, of course I could not resist this wrapping.
We tried the blood-orange and goat milk one. It's very nice, the blood-orange gives it a slight acidity, next I try a black chocolate variety.

in't veld comes from Berlin, read more about the company here.

I just love panetone. When the days get shorter and outside it's cold and wet , there is nothing better than a cappuccino and a pice of panetone. The arrival of the Panettone is always quite a happening. You can not buy them for 8 month or so and suddenly you can see them sparkle in every shopwindow.
But don't be tempted to buy a cheap one, there is no such thing as a good and cheap Panettone. A Panettone should be moist and full of flavor.
I guess the best Panettone you get in a small bakery somewhere in Milan, hometown of this traditional Christmas bread. I always buy Bonifanti Panettone i think they make a fantastic Panettone.
