Did you send it to info@gouter.ca?  I've sometimes used .com instead of.ca on the odd occasion.  My experience has been that they have been very quick to respond, so maybe they didn't get your email?

 

Yes, I just double checked -- "info@gauter.ca"

 

Still no response.  Do you think I should resend?

Yes but correct the spelling.  It is gouter not gauter.

Some of you may be interested in this Guardian article about panettone. Although it appertains to the UK, it is still indicative of the interest in this festive food.

Stollen is more dense, chewy and bread-like, whereas panettone is light and airy with a very tender crumb like the best brioche.

 

Do be sure to warm it through before eating, though. I do slices in the microwave for one minute at 30% power.

 

Or you can do a whole one in the oven...

It appears that the American version of this product doesn't include these instructions. (Either that, or I'd had too much wine before I started looking!) No matter, the results are delicious. I had an interesting time trying to separate half the loaf from its baking container, but managed to wrap it loosely in aluminum foil and give it a gentle warmup in a low oven.

Delicious! My dinner guests and I had all commented on the wonderful aroma, even out of the box. Bright, fruity citrus flavors, warm buttery smells. It was even better after gentle warming.

 

Happy? No, we were delighted!

I absolutely DID NOT gnaw away the stuck crust from the packaging. That is !FAKE NEWS!

I opened our Goûter chocolate panettone this morning to have with our tea/coffee.  I warmed the pieces in a dry frying pan and it was delicious.

My two boxes of traditional panettone from Goûter! Enjoyed a slice with breakfast Saturday and Sunday. Have not tried toasting it or heating it, may try that if it starts to stale. Bringing the second panettone to the family holiday party -- if it hasn't been finished before then 😉 

@Alleguede hard to believe but I think that you are right and this batch is even better than last years!

You bunch of enablers! Having fallen off the "thrift" wagon and onto the panettone wagon, I just this morning ordered both a chocolate and a traditional panettone from @Alleguede. I can hardly wait! I'll be sharing them, of course. Maybe.

Just bought the pistachio one this morning. It's a "high-end" pasticceria and is one of the highly regarded pastry shops in the Sardinian capital (where I'm on holiday at the moment).

Debating if I should get this one as well, to compare.

the very nature of how panettone is made/baked/cooled . . . the paper wrap is just simply "there"

 

one can attempt to peel it off 'all at once' - or one can simply 'do the slice' and peel the paper wrap one slice at a time.

 

I do the slice-then-peel.  but that's just me.

Husband finished the last of our second panettone of the season.     I did a small part, preferring something savory at breakfast.    Finishing off one is always a good feeling, like vacuuming up the last of the Christmas tree needles.    Next one in 2025.

I've shared much of my first panettone around, and still have a little left for breakfast slices when the fit takes me. Two more are on their way!
