One of the most prized crafts in antiquity was bakery. The Romans called their bread panis and made it in several forms such as: trigons – panis trifi dus, tetragons – panis quadratus, pentagons, hectagons and octagons. For everyday use they often used a large round loaf, usually baked in ashes. One of the most beautiful wreaths in the shape of a wreath was called panis which had many sub variants. Usually for the SCUPINI ROMANI events, we are making the Roman bread libum or popularly called Roman cheesecake .
