Christmas Stollen Bread or Christ stollen is full of nuts, raisins and candied fruit. If made a few weeks in advance of serving it mellows and softens and is very good. As a traditional German fruitcake with a profound history, it's no wonder that there are as many variations of stollen as there are people who make it. This version includes a rich filling of marzipan, which adds to the decadence of the bread-like cake.
