What you will eat at homes and restaurants and hotels over Christmas, or can buy in supermarkets now, for the shopping trolley traveller:
England/UK Great Britain and N Ireland:
Christmas cake
Christmas pudding
Mince pies
Scotland
Dundee Cake
France
Buche Noel
Italy
Pannetone
In England we have one with chocolate chips. As you can see the regular variety was more popular and sold first.
Spain
Three kings cake
Germany/Switzerland
S t o l l e n
Stollen is a cake in a roll shape, with rounded ends, sultanas and/or candied peel, and a roll of marzipan down the centre. In a previous year we bought a DIY stollen with the ingredients and rice in a pack. We have also made our own. It is very calorific. I love marzipan.
More pictures are in my previous posts.
