IN SEVENTH HEAVEN

The giant Zimtstern from Mutterland is so big that several gourmets can enjoy sharing it. It tastes perfect at a cozy tea time or with coffee. By the way, for the small Christmas hunger, the spicy pastry is also available as small stars...

All stars are cut out individually and by hand, making them charming unique specimens. The stars are baked only for a short time, so they remain tasty and nice and juicy. After cooling, the confectioners lovingly pack the stars in small bags and the heavenly bodies go on their journey to be nibbled in a cozy atmosphere.

"In a Santa's stocking or Advent calendar is the Zimtstern a great idea."

Genuine craftsmanship as well as the best ingredients and traditional processing characterize the Mutterland Zimtstern. The in-house bakery produces the Christmas cookies fresh every day. The most important ingredient for the Mutterland Zimtstern are nuts - and lots and lots of them! Hazelnuts and almonds are the basis for the wonderful dough. Cloves, nutmeg, freshly squeezed lemon juice and fine cinnamon round out the flavor. Preservatives and artificial flavors are deliberately avoided.

Unlike an industrial product, the handmade stars therefore only have a shelf life of around three weeks and are not available until the end of October. But they are incomparably juicy and a real highlight on every Advent table.
