Christmas Stollen Bread

The Christmas Stollen, also know as Christollen, was introduced to holiday celebrations in 13th century Germany. The bundle shape of the loaf with a covering of powdered sugar is symbolic of The Christ Child wrapped in swaddling clothes. Edgar’s Stollen is a delicious sweet bread filled with rum soaked cranberries, raisins and golden raisins, combined with a luscious almond marzipan and then coated with powdered sugar.

This unbelievably rich loaf is worthy of your holiday celebrations! Enjoy a slice toasted with a cup of your favorite hot beverage! Its holiday packaging makes this bread a lovely gift.

Founded in Birmingham as a small neighborhood bakery by the husband-and-wife duo of Terry and Dottie Smith in 1998, Edgar’s Bakery has since grown into one of Alabama’s most beloved homespun bakeries, with nearly a dozen locations throughout the state. Cakes from Edgar’s are a must-have at weddings, graduations, birthday parties, and all other celebrations in Alabama, and the bakery has been named Alabama’s best by publications such as Taste of the South Magazine, Alabama Magazine, and Birmingham Magazine. And with one bite, you’ll understand why!
