Why we love it
If you’ve ever visited Naples or the Campania region, you’ve likely come across the beloved baba, the soft, spongy pastry traditionally soaked in rum. But while rum baba is the classic favorite, the limoncello baba offers a vibrant and refreshing variation, uniting two of Campania’s most iconic culinary treasures: baba and limoncello.
Crafted with care by Oro di Amalfi, these light, naturally leavened cakes are soaked in the brand’s premium, small-batch limoncello, made from the fragrant lemons of the Amalfi Coast. The sponge absorbs the citrus liqueur’s elegant, zesty character, creating a harmonious balance of sweetness and bright acidity.
The result is an irresistible dessert that captures the sunny, aromatic essence of southern Italy. Enjoy the limoncello baba on its own as a refined indulgence, or elevate it into a show stopping finale by serving it with a scoop of lemon gelato. Whether enjoyed after a summer meal or presented as part of a festive celebration, this dessert delivers a true taste of Campania’s culinary soul.
And when the baba is gone, don’t let the rest of the limoncello syrup go to waste, sip and savour it as a flavorful digestif. With 12% alcohol content, it's a treat meant to be relished slowly.
Delicate, aromatic, and utterly unique, Oro di Amalfi’s limoncello baba is a must-have for lovers of Italian pastry and lemon-forward desserts alike.
