2 Bags of Fresh German Gingerbread
Item Purchased: 2 Bags of Fresh German Gingerbread
Location Purchased: Sweet Swabian / Christkindlmarket / Daley Plaza / Chicago, IL
Price: $5.00
Review: Every year I head out to Chicago's Christkindlmarket where several companies from around the world set up outdoor kiosks to sell foods and Christmas gifts. It gives me a chance to tie up the loose ends in my holiday procrastination and see what kind of wares are being offered, sometimes by the craftspeople themselves. One of the highlights is the spiced wine stand and Sweet Swabian who sell several kinds of roasted almonds and this fantastic gingerbread. At two large bags for $5.00, it is a steal.
The gingerbread looks almost like cubes of fudge. Not the gingerbread most Americans are used to, this is actual sugared and spiced bread instead of a flat crisp cookie. The bread has volume and is soft and chewey...and most of all addictive... which is why I made sure to share the bags with my co-workers.
