Panett-1 Plus - from February in the new 2% enhanced formula - is the natural pastry improver created for large leavened cakes such as panettone, pandoro and Easter colomba. It enhances the characteristics of the finished product made with artisanal process and increases the shelf-life up to 8 weeks. It gives softness, improving the chewability of the finished product. The dosage is 2%, calculated on the total flour of the recipe, excluding the flour of the sourdough starter. Panett-1 Plus 2% is to be added only in the last dough and is available in compact 200 g packages.
To get an even better result in the production of artisan Easter colomba with sourdough, it is possible to combine Panett-1 Plus 2% with the natural improver SweetEnzymes. This enzymatic blend improves volume and structure, giving stability to the dough. SweetEnzymes should be added at 1%, only on the flour of the second dough.
