Cookie butter and speculoos cookies are continuing to make waves amongst foodies, which is seeing brands respond with new seasonal items like the Ofner Panettone Biscofner. The product from the artisanal bakery in Brazil is made with the brand's signature triple natural fermentation recipe that gives the panettone a buttery texture. The cake bread is filled with a Biscoff cream to give it a touch of sweetness and spice, and also comes served with a sachet of crushed BIscoff cookies to encourage consumers to add more flavor, if desired.
The Ofner Panettone Biscofner has a 35.27-ounce size, is priced at $50 and is launching for purchase in the US via the brand's website and on Amazon to make it the perfect gift.
