Kugelhopf

Kougelhopf, the essential Alsatian brioche.

A symbol of indulgence par excellence, Kougelhopf is much more than just a cake: it is a veritable institution in Alsace. Its tall, fluted shape, created using a traditional terracotta mould, makes it a dessert that is as beautiful as it is delicious.

Golden brown, this yeast-raised brioche comes in two versions: sweet, filled with rum- or kirsch-soaked raisins and crunchy almonds, or savoury, with bacon and walnuts, perfect as an aperitif accompanied by a glass of Crémant d'Alsace.

Served warm, dusted with icing sugar or proudly displayed on a festive table, Kougelhopf embodies the conviviality and gentle way of life in Alsace.
