Lebkuchen-Schmidt Chocolate & Sugar Coated PGI Lebkuchen, 500g

Chocolate and sugar-coated Lebkuchen are a festive German treat to share with friends and family. Each round biscuit has a soft, chewy texture and notes of warming spice. Their nutty, caramelised flavour is further enhanced by a fine sugar glaze or a covering of smooth, rich chocolate. Enjoy these classic Lebkuchen on their own or with tea and coffee.

Lebkuchen are traditional German biscuits, said to have been invented by medieval monks. With a soft texture somewhere between a cake and a cookie, these spiced biscuits are similar to gingerbread but richer and made with honey instead of molasses. They are particularly popular at Christmastime, but they’re delicious all year round!
