Butter Cookies
While Jarosch Bakery’s regular Butter Cookies are known far and wide for their addictive buttery flavors, we also create a second assortment at Christmastime! All 47 varieties of these delicate cookies are handmade, dipped, and decorated by our talented pastry staff - down to the very last button on each Snowman! The time, effort, and care put into Jarosch Butter Cookies make each cookie box an extra special gift for your friends and family.
In December 2023, Butter Cookie will only be available in 3 Assortments:
Full Assortments, No-Nut Assortments, and Non-Christmas Assortments
This year, there is no pre-ordering or same day shopping of specific cookie types.
To avoid the long waits closer to the Christmas, we highly recommend picking up your cookies a couple weeks early and freezing them until Christmas. It works - we've tried it! We'll happily shrink wrap your boxes for you, as well!

TRADITIONAL EUROPEAN TREATS
Stollen
SEASONAL ONLY! A well-known German Christmas tradition, Stollen has a long, distinguished history, having been baked for the first time at the Council of Trent! It is a buttery Christmas bread filled with candied fruits and pecans spiced with mace and a bit of citrus - a perfect coffeecake with breakfast or light dessert. Choose your size - small or large - and choose your topping: Powdered Sugar, Cinnamon Sugar, Plain, or Icing.
Fruit Cake
SEASONAL ONLY! It just isn't Christmas without Fruit Cake! Sure, it's a heavy loaf but that's because it's filled-- and we mean FILLED-- with a colorful array of candied fruits and nuts adding sweetness and crunch. And of course, rum extract adds the traditional flavor that pairs nicely with all of those fruits. At Jarosch, our Fruit Cake is wrapped with a bow and ready to go for the holidays AND available in single slices if you want "just a taste."
Pfeffernüsse
SEASONAL ONLY! Thankfully you don't need to know how to spell or say the name of these Christmas cookies in order to enjoy them! Pronounced "Feffer-noose-eh," these "pepper nut" cookies are German gingerbread cookies covered in peppermint icing and coated in powdered sugar. They're great served with tea or coffee!
Limpa Bread
SEASONAL ONLY! Limpa is a Swedish Rye Bread and traditional favorite during the holiday season. The citrus notes and hint of anise create a soft, sweet loaf that pairs beautifully with jams, preserves, cream cheese, and even just lightly toasted with a little butter. We bake it only during November and December so be sure to grab a few extra loaves for the freezer!
