While Christmas stollen cakes are baked according to various recipes throughout Germany and other German-speaking countries, "Dresden Stollen" is a protected geographical indication, meaning that it can only be prepared and sold in the vicinity of Dresden and only by members of the bakers' guild Schutzverband Dresdner Stollen. The special features of this type of cake are a heavy, very rich dough (according to the classic technology, 3 kg of butter are added to each kilogram of flour), which is thickly stuffed with candied fruit, nuts and raisins. Correct stollen are baked 30-40 days before Christmas, thickly greased with honey and butter, wrapped in parchment and sent to "ripen" on a buffet shelf or in the cellar. The thick layer of powdered sugar with which the stollen is covered at the very end has its own sacred meaning - the cupcake symbolizes the baby Jesus, wrapped in snow-white swaddling clothes.
