Celebrate the season with the 2025 Lebkuchen of the Year!

The Lebkuchen Schmidt Premium Elisen Wild Blueberry & Marzipan combines authentic Nuremberg Elisen Lebkuchen with one of the most luxurious flavour pairings in the Schmidt collection: rich marzipan and sweet-tart wild blueberries inspired by the forests of Europe.

Crafted with 25% nuts and almonds, these premium Elisen Lebkuchen are baked on delicate wafers and generously coated in dark chocolate, then finished with elegant white chocolate stripes for a festive touch that feels every bit as special as the flavour itself.

Customers gave this recipe glowing 5-star reviews during its debut season, praising the wonderfully moist texture and the way the flavours of blueberry and marzipan shine through beautifully in every bite.

The combination of juicy blueberries, smooth marzipan, warm spices, and fine chocolate creates a sophisticated and slightly fruity twist on traditional German gingerbread — elegant enough for gifting, but equally perfect enjoyed quietly with coffee or tea during the Christmas season.

Part of Schmidt’s annual “Lebkuchen of the Year” series, this limited-edition recipe celebrates the creativity of the master bakers in Nuremberg, who introduce a new seasonal flavour each year.
