Wicklein Fine Oblaten Burggraf Lebkuchen Assortment

As a German, it's a shame for how much these sell online, but if you can't travel to Germany and got no other local options, these came as close as the ones I tried in Germany. These are significantly better than the local Aldi options. I buy these ones a year, so it won't break my bank either. If you want good tasting Lebkuchen from Nuernberg, Germany don't look further. I mean they aren't as high in the nut content as in good old Germany but still very good.

Although the use by date was not past, these were stale and crumbling apart. Most of the tempered chocolate was cloudy and the wafer was peeling off of the bottom of them. This is proof that this was over a year old. An expensive mistake (bought 2) I won’t make again.

True German taste

To whomever makes these cookies: Please , please stop using paper between the cookies and use a larger piece of parchment. I’m still pulling the paper out of my teeth. It took about 10 minutes to get the rest of the paper off of the backside of the cookie after I took a large bite. The glaze melted into the paper, making it nearly impossible to remove. The cookies are absolutely delicious though and very soft.

I got these because we’ve not had them for it but my dad side of the family is German and he’s really been trying to learn more about German food. So I picked these up for him for Christmas. None of us liked them. There was a few things with them that just Worked great. The packaging was already torn open when it got to us which was already a red flag. But one of the biggest problems was, they had some kind of thick paper on the bottom of them, but it wasn’t easy to remove the sugar and chocolate codeine had basically sealed it to the cookie And even the ones without the solid coating didn’t come off easy so you ended up with paper in about an eighth of the cookie that you just couldn’t get rid of. Beyond that the taste was just OK. It wasn’t anything special but I did have a weird texture. Part of it would be Perfectly normal cookie consistently and then you’d get another bite. They have a bit of paper in it and also have some kind of chunk of something in it as well that was just weird. So definitely not something we’re buying again.

I was super hesitant after reading the reviews, but the cookies were in great condition. They were moist with a nice amount of citron, and deliciously chewy oblaten. I had to wonder about the people who tried to pull the wafers off thinking it was eased paper or something. Just as good as Balshen, with a nicely balanced spice taste.

Very disappointed in the freshness and shipping standard this round. They were shipped in an envelope with no extra padding. I love Wicklein gingerbread and can eat an entire package at one time if not careful. Every other time they have been perfect. Great texture, not dry at all, perfect sweetness, just great. They are a bit pricey but you have to remember they are shipping from Europe. I'll get them again next year. They really start Christmas joy and feelings for me.

The photos displayed are a bit misleading, as the package contains 6 lebkuchen, not 7 as the photos show. The total weight though is the same - 200 g.

El producto llega con fecha de vencimiento del 5 de enero 2024, es decir vence en solo 1 mes, lo cual me dice que es producto sobrante del año pasado. Además llegó todo arrugado y el chocolate gris de viejo.

Muy feliz con la compra. Extrañaba ese sabor característico que tienen estás galletas.
