The Iconic Italian Sweets Brand Costco Has On Its Shelves Again
BY Luna Christina Lupus
Costco has added the delicious Italian dessert known as pandoro to its shelves for less than $10 at Costco — and the chosen brand is none other than the iconic Melegatti.
Pandoro is a star-shaped, golden-yellow sweet bread sprinkled with powdered sugar. It's a staple dessert during the Christmas season, but it tastes great at any time of the year.
Invented by Italian pastry chef Domenico Melegatti in the 19th century, Melegatti pandoros come in different flavors. The one currently at Costco is the timeless tiramisu.
The addition of creamy mascarpone, sweet coffee notes, and cocoa powder takes this soft, cake-like pastry to a whole new flavorful level, making it feel extra dessert-y.
