You can enjoy this flavor year-round. It is the classic Christmas and year-end festivity dessert!
Legend has it that it originated in the 15th Century, when Duke Ludovico il Moro's chef burned a dessert he had been preparing. A kitchen helper named Toni suggested making a loaf of bread with the leftover ingredients. The bread was baked and served to the guests. Everyone liked it and to the Duke, who wanted to know the name of the delicious dessert, the chef revealed the secret: "L'el pan del Toni", or “Toni’s bread.” That is where the name came from.
