Wicklein Fine Oblaten Burggraf Lebkuchen Assortment

Tasted like Europe Not a bunch of processed material in them.

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.

The items were shipped in a box, and arrived fully intact: they were soft, looked like the website picture, and taste good! I don't know anything much about german gourmet foods, but these seem fresh.

Great German . Fresh tasty Cookies

Very German Gingerbread. A tad on the dry side for me as is the icing (on the bottom?) Nevertheless, shared with my husband. Will encourage me to make my same old Betty Crocker recipe.

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.

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.

I grew up in Germany, so these Oblaten Lebkuchen brought back many fond memories. They taste just like they used to many, many years ago! They were in great condition, packaged well, and tasted fresh. I was impressed! I will order again as gifts.
