Emil Reimann Original Dresdner Stollen in Collectible Holiday Tin Imported from Germany 750g

This was terrific stollen! Next year I will order two.

I have a friend who regularly brings me Stollen from Germany so I had a reference in mind when I ordered 2 kinds from Amazon in order to compare them and decide which to buy as holiday gifts. (I actually THREW OUT the Kuchenmeister Marzipan Stollen after trying it. It's not horrible but definitely not worth the calories.)The Stollen to buy is the EMIL REIMANN. It is moist, buttery, full of fruit, and indescribably delicious. What a decadent snack. It's also more than double the price of the Kuchenmeister but you get what you pay for. This is genuine Dresdner Stollen which is the crème de la crème (or the equivalent in German). Accept no substitutes.I will be buying Emil Reimann Stollen for my holiday gifts.

The stollen is extremely tasty and well made. However, it is definitely not worth the cost. It arrived in a decorative tin box, inside a very simple pastic shipping bag with no padding at all. The tin arrived damaged and it was obvious that the stollen had been bouncing around inside the tin box during shipping. I truly enjoyed the flavor and texture of the stollen but considering the cost and the pathetically poor packaging, I will not buy this one again.

Overall would have given this 5 stars IF they had included the velvet pouch for the expensive cake. It is very expensive!! Nice that it comes in a tin to stay fresh. Nice that put extra powder sugar in the box should you decide to add it. But what made me buy the expensive tinned cake year after year was the luxury of the velvet bag to keep the cake in. That touch made it seem like a fair price for that luxury. This year same tin, same delicious cake, but no velvet pouch. May not purchase this next year due to that. There are other good coffee cakes for over $50....

This stollen has the authentic Dresden look, texture and taste. It already has powdered sugar on top but includes a packet of more sugar if you prefer. It is moist and delicious. We like to lightly toast to soften the marzipan and sultanas. We devoured 2 this season.

Last week I ordered one stolen and by next day it was gone.My husband likes it with a cup of tea or warm milk before bed.I ordered two more and the package arrived today.Very happy with the purchase.

In the past this was so tasty and good but this one, given as a gift and opened for Christmas, was very very dry and not worth eating. For the cost-- a waste of money and an embarrassment after I had bragged on the product.The other larger stollen, received at the same time, was great.

I have been eating stollen for over 15 years and am pretty well versed in what a good stollen should taste and feel like. I had never tried the authentic Dresedener Emil Reimann who is considered to be the best. I do agree that the price tag on this is 2-3 times what a stollen costs, but after some thought I bought one. I paid extra for this one that comes in a metal tin gift box. I am soo glad I did. This was full of buttery goodness. I am a convert and will only eat Emil Reimann stollen going forward. Impeccable flavor, very heavy so a small piece is all you need and you literally go back to your childhood with every bite. Merry Christmas everyone!
