The Dresdner Christstollen is a piece of cultural history, a centuries-old baking tradition, a prevailing passion and, above all, a delicious treat. For centuries, Dresden's bakers and pastry makers have kept up this tradition, passing it on from generation to generation. That and the unique combination of selected ingredients are the secret behind that inimitable stollen taste.
Dresdner Christstollen is only produced in bakeries and pastry shops in and around Dresden. The original Dresden Christstollen is a raisin stollen that can be recognized by its golden seal of quality.
Only Genuine with the Seal - The Golden Stollen Seal
The golden, oval seal serves as a certificate ensuring the tested high quality of each Dresdner Christstollen. Only stollen that meet the high expectations of the Stollen Association's constitution are allowed to wear this seal as an award for the high quality and as a symbol of validity. Additionally, the seal informs about the quality and origin of the tradition filled stollen through a control number that is located on the seal. With this 6-digit long seal number the consumer can track from which bakery the stollen originates.
The Dresdner Christstollen is baked in and around Dresden strictly following the traditional recipe that is handed down from one generation to the next.
