The Stollen: a German tradition elevated by Viva Panettone and The Bakers Workshop
A meeting between Italian craftsmanship and Quebec’s gourmet spirit
This year, Viva Panettone joins forces with Bakers Workshop to reinvent a timeless holiday treat: the Stollen.
Inspired by an ancestral German recipe, this rich brioche loaf filled with candied fruits, almonds, and marzipan is reimagined with the care, precision, and indulgence that define Viva Panettone’s creations.
The heritage of a Christmas tradition
The Stollen is a traditional German brioche, baked during the Christmas season since the 15th century.
Its elongated shape, dusted with powdered sugar, was originally meant to symbolize the swaddled baby Jesus. Over time, it became a festive staple, loved for its rich flavor and tender texture.
Generously filled with candied fruit, raisins, almonds, and marzipan, the loaf is brushed with melted butter and coated in icing sugar, creating a sweet crust that perfectly balances softness and crunch.
At Viva Panettone, this age-old tradition takes on a modern touch — with carefully selected ingredients, a melt-in-your-mouth texture, and that signature touch of artisanal refinement that defines the house.
A creation crafted by four hands
In the heart of Montreal, Viva Panettone and Bakers Workshop have combined their expertise to bring this unique version of the Stollen to life.
One contributes its mastery of natural leaven and passion for Italian traditions; the other brings its artisanal baking expertise and eye for detail.
The result?
A rich, tender, and perfectly balanced cake — rustic yet elegant — made to be shared over a cup of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate.
Two sizes, one promise: pure pleasure
The Stollen is available in two formats, ideal for gifting, sharing, or simply treating yourself to a comforting moment of sweetness.
Each loaf is carefully wrapped, ready to become the perfect gourmet gift or the centerpiece of your holiday table.
A limited edition not to be missed
This collaboration is produced in limited quantities.
Once the final batch leaves the oven, it will be gone until next year…
