Easter bread is a traditional baked good enjoyed during the Easter holiday in various cultures. It often symbolizes the end of Lent and the joy of the resurrection. The bread can be sweet or savory, with ingredients like eggs, sugar, and spices, and is sometimes shaped into braids or rings.
Different regions have their own variations of Easter bread. For example, in Greece, a popular version is called Tsoureki, which is flavored with mahlab and mastic. In Italy, Colomba di Pasqua is a dove-shaped cake topped with almonds. Each type reflects local customs and family traditions.
