HOW STAUD'S VIENNA MAKES THE ADVENT THE ENJOYING ARTWORK.

It's mainly the little things that can be discovered on this year's STAUD'S Advent calendar. He accompanies us to where the history of the traditional Viennese company began: to the Brunnenmarkt in Vienna's 16th district. The story behind every door is stylishly continued through 24 delicious compositions with specially created labels. In terms of taste, the Advent calendar takes us on a culinary journey through time: from well-known classics to new organic compositions and limited special editions. Young and old alike will be thrilled here.

HOW STAUD'S VIENNA MAKES THE ADVENT THE ENJOYING ARTWORK.
It is indeed a small work of art that arises year after year. More than 100 steps are necessary until a single copy of the STAUD'S Advent Calendar can leave the workshop. 

The Advent Calendar is filled with 24 serving glasses á 37g (of which 21 jams, 1 honey, 1 chutney, 1 wine jelly).

Take a look at our advent calendar once very carefully: you will also discover an owl on it. 🦉 This is no coincidence: Hans Staud's mother was a great animal lover, especially the owls did it to her. 🦉🦉 And so grandma Staud has created an extremely large collection of owl figures over the years, which we honor in our pavilion at Yppenplatz. 😉 Stop by us: Huhuu Huhuuu! 🦉

Babas are mushroom shaped yeast cakes, similar to Brioche, that are leavened 3 times before baking for a light, fluffy, and cloud-like texture. Quality pastry is key since it absorbs the desired liqueur. Rum is most common, with Limoncello and local liqueurs as a special treat. These Babas are soaked in a Limoncello Syrup made from lemons of the Amalfi Coast and enjoyed with cream or gelato. For best results, tip the jar upside down before opening.

Babas are yeast cakes shaped like mushrooms and soaked in hard liqueur and sugar. Similar to Brioche dough, these cakes ferment three times, creating a light, fluffy texture. To complete the process, the cakes are dried out for one day before being soaked. Since this is a time-intensive process, Babas are rarely made at home and instead purchased from specialty stores. The quality of the pastry is essential, as it absorbs the liqueur used. Generally, Rum is used to soak them, while regional liqueurs are a special treat. To enjoy them, simply turn the jar upside down before opening to ensure the cakes are fully covered in the liqueur. Cream or vanilla bean gelato are ideal accompaniments.

Once the nougat is cooled, it’s cut into pieces and packaged.  Strega hard Nougat  is produced with the finest ingredients.
