Organic stollen spice blend for Christmas baking

Product description

Biova Organic Stollen Spice is a well-balanced blend for classic Christmas baking such as stollen, mini stollen and fruit loaves. Warm notes of cinnamon, cloves and star anise meet fresh accents of orange, lemon and lemon myrtle.

All spices used are from certified organic farming and are carefully processed in Germany into a coarse, granulated blend. This gives you an aroma-stable stollen spice that disperses evenly in the dough and is suitable for bakeries, foodservice and home baking alike.

You can use Biova Organic Stollen Spice in many ways in stollen, cookies, winter desserts and hot drinks. Just a small amount is enough to achieve a consistent, aromatic Biova flavour with a classic Christmas character.

Origin

The spice blend is developed, mixed and packed in Germany. Biova relies on selected organic spices from suitable countries of origin to ensure a stable, reproducible flavour profile.

Cultivation / production / harvest

Individual spices such as cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and star anise are gently dried after harvest and, depending on the spice, ground or coarsely crushed. They are then processed in Germany into a coarse, granulated organic spice blend for both bulk and retail formats.

Special features

Typical for this blend is the combination of classic Christmas spices with fresh citrus notes and aromatic lemon myrtle. Bourbon vanilla, tonka bean, nutmeg and mace add depth and a sweet-spicy nuance, making Biova Stollen Spice more complex than simple Christmas spice mixes.

Differences in origin and processing

Depending on the origin of the raw spices, heat, sweetness and citrus freshness may vary slightly, but are deliberately balanced in the blend. Central processing and packing in Germany ensure a consistent granulation, uniform quality and a reliable flavour profile for both bulk and retail variants.

Taste & aroma

On the nose, warm aromas of cinnamon, cloves and star anise dominate, rounded off by fine vanilla. On the palate, orange peel and lemon peel combine with the gentle heat of ginger and the floral note of lemon myrtle, while nutmeg, mace and tonka bean complete the overall winter impression.
