I had one of your Pannetone mixes (which are excellent, by the way) and the expiration date had come and gone. I just took out the yeast package and added the correct amount of fresh yeast, mixed it up in the bread machine and put in in a low, turned off oven to rise. I kind of forgot about it and when I looked it had risen way higher than it should have. Went ahead and baked it anyway. It rose even more, up over the baking paper and down the side and on to the sheet pan. looked like it was trying to escape. It was still good though. I figured it was the really fresh yeast or it didn't like me forgetting about it..
