Almond Stollen, 1 kg

Our Almond Stollen combines the best of two worlds: the buttery-fine aroma of a traditional Christmas Stollen on the one hand, and the significantly less intense sweetness on the other. Because here we do without the sultanas in the dough and replace them with more almonds. Taste the unique taste of our handmade almond stollen from the online shop of Bäckerei & Café Eckert. It will certainly enchant you too!

Neither sultanas nor poppy seeds: Almond Stollen as an alternative

Few people want to do without stollen at Christmas. But there are many who do not like the sultanas in traditional yeast pastry. As is well known, there is no accounting for taste and over the years we have worked on numerous alternatives in our bakery. Since some people find poppy seeds too bitter and marzipan or chocolate can quickly become too sweet, the ideal solution is our Almond Stollen!

It enchants everyone with its special aroma. The good butter that was used, together with the higher proportion of almonds, gives a wonderfully fine taste, with only a very light marzipan note, which is very pleasant for many people. However, the pastry does not stray too far from the traditional recipe. For example, it still contains candied orange peel and candied lemon peel and is adorned by a thick layer of icing sugar. 

A real treat!

As the almond stollen lacks rum sultanas, the yeast pastry has a much lower sugar content. In a normal Christmas Stollen, this not only contributes to the typical taste, but also ensures that the moisture in the dough is more strongly bound. Unfortunately, this preservative effect does not occur in the Almond Stollen. 

However, the Christmas treat will keep for up to 30 days if stored correctly. For this purpose, the Almond Stollen should be stored at a temperature of 5-8°C in a dry environment. The aroma lasts particularly well in a metal tin. In order to additionally protect it from drying out, the Stollen should always be cut in the middle and then pushed together again. 

But let's be honest: Most of the time the biscuits are washed away faster than we actually intended them to be. Fortunately, you can always order supplies from us in the Bäckerei & Café Eckert online shop. We deliver handmade and freshly baked almond stollen directly to your home.
