Maybe you should try one as soon as possible. I am quite sure, that most of the readers get a wrong impression of lightness in the context of a "'''Stollen'''".--[[User:83.171.169.222|83.171.169.222]] 21:23, 13 December 2006 (UTC) |

Date Ernst and Albrecht wrote to the Pope
There seems to be many contradictory dates and popes on the internet for this event. I've chosen a date when the brothers were alive and not little boys, and a Pope who was also alive then :-). Various popes actually wrote grants, as the first one just let the nobility use butter and later popes extended it more. I suppose that's why other years and popes are named (Nicholaus V, Innocent X...) but their names are probably too much detail for the article itself and would spoil the tale.

The recipe link for American Stollen has a live link but the recipe is gone. So I deleted it. Here's the link if anyone wants to replace it:
