Servatii’s Cincinnati Stollen

A Cincinnati Holiday Icon: The Authentic Servatii Stollen Experience the "Old World" taste of Christmas with Servatii’s Stollen. Handmade locally in Cincinnati, Ohio—a city with deep German roots—this isn't just a fruitcake; it is a centuries-old tradition brought to life.

Starting with a rich, buttery yeast dough, Servatii’s master bakers fold in a generous amount of crunchy almonds and plump raisins. The centerpiece of this masterpiece is the rope of rich almond paste (marzipan) running through the loaf, ensuring every slice is moist and flavorful. Finally, the loaf is dipped in butter and dusted with a snowy layer of confectioners' sugar to seal in the freshness.

 

Why is Stollen a Christmas Tradition?

Often called Christstollen, this dense, buttery bread is steeped in symbolism. The folded shape and the white dusting of powdered sugar are meant to represent the Christ Child wrapped in swaddling clothes. While originally from Dresden, Germany, the tradition thrives in Cincinnati thanks to bakeries like Servatii’s that refuse to cut corners on ingredients.

Serving Suggestions for the Perfect Bite

To enjoy Servatii's Stollen like a true connoisseur:

  1. Slice Thin: The dough is rich and dense, so thin slices are best.

  2. Room Temperature: Let the Stollen sit out to soften the butter and marzipan.

  3. Toast It: Lightly toasting a slice creates a caramelized exterior while melting the almond paste inside.

  4. Pairing: Perfect with a strong cup of DLM coffee or a glass of Riesling.
