[@epistte]

Aldi makes a decent stollen.

[@minajordan5359]

@@epistte well, they make ..... eatable stollen, I would not call it decent though. But as I am a Confectioner and are used to the high quality swollen from my workplace, maby I just have a higher standard.

[@epistte]

@@minajordan5359 I paid my tuition by baking in college, so I can make a better stollen, but $6.00 its very good. I've paid more and it wasn't as good as what Aldi sells.

[@emjayay]

@@epistte (In the US) The stollen at Aldi and Trader Joe's and other places is all made in Germany. So it's old by the time you get it, but very high in fat and sugar so it lasts. Of course none of it is the same thing as a homemade or bakery one, but good for what it is. I've tried many and they are all similar no matter what the source. The style makes them different - some have cherries, some marzipan (my fave) etc. Aldi is of course reliably the cheapest, and TJ's next cheapest. The foil wrapped German chocolate Santas etc. are half or less as much at Aldi as the same things at import food stores. (Germany has chocolate regulations - natürlich - so their Christmas and Easter chocolate figures or real German chocolate advent calendars are FAR better than similar typical ones in the US unless you buy high end gourmet stuff.)

[@valerieannrumpf4151]

I agree 100%. Either get your stollen from a good bakery or make it yourself.

Same with the BAUMKUCHEN ( better phrased as TREE SHAPED CAKE ) I know there is a similar Cake in Virginkioa were they also do a vry similar DOW LEVELED CAKE. The better Qulity you get in Konditoreien and it tastes much different from those cheap supermarket items. Allso you eat Baumkuchen just thinliced to bring out the fine taste of the baked spiced dow

[@Dutchbelg3]

Speculatius: Speculaas is SOOOOO Dutch! Yes they usually have the windmills on them or they come in man and woman shape. Then they are called : Speculaaspop (Speculaas puppet) . In the past these cookies were made on a Speculaasplank. A wooden plank with hand cut-out patterns in which the dough is formed to the specific shape.

[@emjayay]

A very different German molded cookie is Springerle. You press the little relief pictures into the dough with a wooden roller or flat wooden mold and then cut into the squares. They are hard and dry unlike Speculaas, in fact dried overnight before baking. Anise seeds are sprinkled on the pan so they get baked into the underside, and that's the main flavor. Why yes I do have a roller. The new ones from Germany have crap carvings sadly so I had to look for a vintage one on Ebay. I glaze them to add a bit of sweetness and vanilla flavor.

[@harmsarah]

Next time Deana should try Vanillekipferl from a Bakery. They are more expensive than the ones from REWE, Lidl or Aldi. Like 5€ for 100g (at least where i am from). But it is worth. They are not as dense and are more like "melting on the tongue". Both (the cheap mass production and the bakery ones) are dry and crumbly but she will see the difference. As always a good video and keep up the work. I love your content

[@swanpride]

Stollen is great, if you pick a GOOD one (ie from a proper bakery but even better you make it yourself). A good Stollen CAN'T be dry, because the point is to let it rest long enough that the marzipan seeps into the dough. The Baumkuchen was pretty poor excusse, too, btw.

[@mariosanchetti6885]

We have both ALDI & Lidl nearby so I have tried a lot of great cookies and candies from Germany. I am addicted to Knoppers, thanks to a previous post you did.

After watching many Knoppers addict NALF videos I bought some Knoppers (had to buy a pack of five) at Aldi in Brooklyn when they appeared. VERY disappointed - blandest chocolate/hazelnut thing I've ever had. Barely any flavor of either one.

Greetings from Australia! My husband and I are really enjoying your videos. Pfeffernüsse is mine and my family's favourite Christmas snack but not that crappy stuff you tried with the white icing.

Speculaas is typical Dutch cookie. Usually with windmills. Fruitcake stollen is bread with dried fruit inside (sometimes nuts) and marzipan.. you must put butter on it and eat it for breakfast.

The main ingredients of Marzipan are almonds, sugar and rose water.

[@minajordan5359]

@Evi1M4chine yeah, but it's hard to get for most people, lubeka and Albrecht and nice don't deliver to private persons and besides, there are versions of marzipan made with a splash of rosewater, it especially makes it easier for people who are making it at home. and sugar is always necessary, or you just have almond butter, marzipanrohmasse is 1/3 sugar if you didn't already knew this.

Spekulatius are my FAVORITE cookie. My grandmother used to make little fruit shaped marzipan at Christmas, they were so good!

[@MrSlygui]

A bunch of these we also have in the Netherlands, but definitely the speculaas en pepernoten (as we call them) are dutch and are Sinterklaas snacks (5th of December). So, yes, these are typically Dutch cookies! Although the Pfeffernüsse/pepernoten look very different (bigger and we have them with different kinds of chocolade, but they're usually without). Also, these speculaas-cookies are sold all year round but other shapes and sizes are holiday-specific.. We have the Kringelmischung a-lot around christmas, in many different types (cookies/chocolade/with filling) to hang in the tree and call the kerstkransjes (little christmas-wreaths). Though judging by your reactions they might be of higher quality here 😂. Greetings from the Netherlands!

Yes, marzipan is crushed almonds and sugar, sometimes a little gelatin to hold it together.

[@minajordan5359]

gelatin? never heard of that

[@minajordan5359]

Marzipankartoffeln are marzipan dusted with a 1:1 mix of cacaopowder and icing sugar and then are swung over the steam of boiling water, so the cocoa and the sugar melt a little and create a sort of "protection layer" so the marzipan doesn't dry out.

[@hedypost7690]

You got to try some prause candy from germany a little sour but gut

[@jabba6552]

"Dominosteine" are typical German - they were invented short after World War II when the feedstock for Pralinen (What's that in English?) was impossible to get and/or unaffordable. What you did test was the supermarket-version of Christmas Sweets. Try again with those from you local bakery or even better form a baker in the region(s) they are from originaly. The differences are huge. And if you go for christmas sweets at supermarkets again avoid the own brands of the "big" chains (EDEKA, REWE...) but choose ALDI (sorry for the ad)

My mom likes to eat and bake her own Stollen (although we always spell/pronounce it "Stoellen"). Her ancestors originally came from a small town near Chemnitz, so it's traditional for them. She likes to put in the fruit pieces, nuts, raisins, etc., but she doesn't coat it with powdered sugar. I'm not a fan of it, myself. I always think it tastes like bread with some extras thrown in.

[@emjayay]

I specifically remember as a kid taking a bite out of a cute little decorative marzipan candy. It can be shaped like animals etc. and painted with food colors. I think it was a little pig. I thought it was kind of bad also. Now I also like it, with chocolate or in a stollen. Or even cute little animals.

I enjoy gingerbread a lot. It's a classic childhood Christmas food. I prefer them in crispy cut out cookie form though, not cake. I don't mind German Stollen. It goes good with a hard sauce and coffee. Much better than an American fruitcake with the red and green cherry bits. My husband's favorite Christmas treat is Walker's Shortbread Cookies or Almond cookies dipped in chocolate that his mom makes. I like spice drops (gummy drops that are spice flavors). But Gingerbread is probably my favorite Christmas treat. I make houses out of it and cut out cookies. Hot Chocolate is my other favorite winter thing, or egg nog if you count beverages.

[@Cadfael007]

Come to the Lower Rhine Area of Germany and eat "Pöffertjes" (originally from the Netherlands). Fluffy sweet (a bit like Berliner) with or without Rosinen. You should eat them warm but even cold they taste great. The best the Netherlands have ever gave us except Fleischrolle Spezial!
