Easter cake "Bright memories" with candied oranges

This recipe is the quintessence of childhood memories of products, memories of my great-grandmother's Easter recipes, my modern skills and knowledge about cooking, love for Italian cuisine and Panettone in particular. My great-grandmother traditionally baked Easter cakes for Easter. They were lush, golden with golden splashes of light raisins, so for me the cake must be with such raisins. I remember how my dad told me with delight how in his school years he tried homemade candied oranges from a friend. And then, as a child, it seemed to me that this was such an unknown word, and even more so, it was completely difficult to imagine how to cook them. But years have passed, and I know how to cook candied fruits! And I also know that there is not one type of meringue, but several, and I even mastered the technology of their preparation.
