For Christmas only - the Stollen is back!
Stollen is a German Christmas treat also known as Christstollen or Weihnachtsstollen. It is an enriched fruit bread with homemade almond marzipan running through the middle and dusted generously with icing sugar on top. It is packed with spiced rum-soaked dried cranberries, raisins, almonds and candied orange peel.
This cake-like bread gets better with a few weeks maturing as the rum in the fruit permeates the crumb (the alcohol evaporates during baking so the final product should be low in alcohol).
Delicious either simply sliced or even lightly toasted, with maybe a little butter. The stollen is covered with a dusting of icing sugar to help preserve it and it will arrive wrapped tightly in baking paper and a festive ribbon, ready to be unveiled when you can no longer resist the temptation!
A perfect gift or family treat this Christmas.
