Spring is in the air, and with it comes one of Italy’s most cherished holidays: La Pasqua, or Easter. At Origini Italian Market, we invite you to celebrate the season with authentic Italian flair—offering a curated selection of traditional Easter delicacies that bring the warmth, sweetness, and spirit of Italian culture right to your table.
The Star of the Season: La Colomba di Pasqua
No Italian Easter is complete without the iconic Colomba di Pasqua. Shaped like a dove to symbolize peace and renewal, the colomba is a soft, fluffy cake made with a slow-rising dough similar to panettone. It’s enriched with butter, eggs, and candied orange peel, and topped with a sweet almond glaze that adds just the right crunch.
At Origini, we proudly stock premium Colombas from beloved Italian brands, made with time-honored methods and the finest ingredients. Whether you prefer the classic version, or something a little different—like chocolate chip, pistachio cream-filled, or pear and chocolate—you’ll find a colomba that fits your taste and brings a touch of Italian tradition to your Easter celebration.
Italian Easter Eggs
Another treasured tradition in Italy is the Uovo di Pasqua—a large, decorative chocolate Easter egg, often filled with a surprise inside. At Origini, you’ll discover an array of beautifully wrapped Easter eggs, from milk and dark chocolate to specialty options with hazelnuts, gianduja, or pistachio cream. Some even come with toys or collectible surprises tucked inside—just like the ones Italian children look forward to every year!
We offer options from top Italian chocolatiers, ensuring each egg is as luxurious and delicious as it is festive. These make perfect gifts for children and adults alike—or a centerpiece for your holiday table.
