Care & Handling of Sterntaler Bakery Products

Storage and Freshness Sterntaler Bakery Stollen can last for a very long time if stored correctly. We do not use any preservatives when we bake, so it is even more amazing that our Stollen can stay fresh for at least 12 weeks. If you cannot manage to finish your Stollen within the suggested time (although we highly doubt it!) then by all means freeze it. Stollen freezes well for up to one month. If frozen, then just defrost in the refrigerator and enjoy once thawed. Generally, once opened, keep your Stollen wrapped in plastic and out of direct sunlight. Store it somewhere where it is NO WARMER than room temperature (approx. 75 degrees Fahrenheit). Your Stollen should keep fresh for at least 8 weeks (or the enjoy by date). Sterntaler Bakery Lebkuchen can last for about 5-6 weeks if stored in a plastic bag, no warmer than room temperature. We do not recommend freezing Lebkuchen as this dries it out. All products shipped to you are made fresh and you can assume the maximum shelf-life. Natural and Organic Ingredients We use only the highest quality select natural and organic ingredients to bake Stollen,and only the best natural ingredients to bake Lebkuchen. We do not use any artificial preservatives or additives. Everything you buy from us is natural and fresh.
