Mentioned in: Where to Find the Best Panettone & Pandoro in Montreal This Season

Review Summary

Reviews about Viva panettone show a mix of glowing praise and notable frustrations. Some praise the maple panettone as absolutely delicious and even the best in the world, while the large chocolate version is described as very dry and lacking flavor for the price. The new stollen is reported as extremely dry and hard after the first bite, and some feel that selling it as a tender brioche is misleading. Other comments celebrate moelleux textures and strong flavor, with many noting the products as very good and highly recommended. A preference for the Italian panettone over the French version is mentioned, with the latter described as too dry. In recent months the panettones are described as drier, and feedback from customers reportedly goes unanswered. When a mistaken order is corrected with a coupon, the value is said not to cover the full order, leaving some customers feeling undervalued. Overall, experiences vary, ranging from very positive experiences and strong recommendations to disappointment over texture and service.View restaurant profile
