      I think it is pretty popular here.

      Whatever that is that you are holding might be made like a Baumkuchen, but definitely not how I have ever seen one packaged and or eaten.

      Why do you think Baumkuchen is more popular in Japan?

    4. schlaubi on

      Have you tried it? It’s normally dry and boring tasting. I find it plausible that it’s more popular as a souvenir or gimmick thank as actual food.

      just like weebs think everything in japan is like in Anime, Japanese people think we Germans eat baumkuchen all year round.

      Baumkuchen is like a regular cake you encounter in germany, i have had some multiple times

      I dont really know how you determined it to be more popular in japan, so i am curious to find out.

      Yeah I was wondering that too. Juchheim was the one who brought it to Japan apparently, it’s kind of the typical dessert/sweet of Kobe nowadays. But can be found in many other places too, we just bought some in Matsumoto to take home, from a local baker that only does Baumkuchen. And in every convenience store as a small snack. With many things in Japan, they are perfectionists in what they do and given the quality of the original product (and yumminess), it must have spread far and wide.

      This is not the way that Baumkuchen is traditionally cut. And Baumkuchen is a very regional dish with the city of Salzwedel as the epicentre.

      >Why Baumkuhen is more popular in japan than Germany?

      Is it?

      Baumkuchen is more of a seasonal product here that is tied to Christmas season. But during that time (between autumn and the turn of the year), all markets are full with it. Outside of the season, high-level bakeries will have Baumkuchen, too.

      Whether it is more or less popular than in Japan however, I don’t know.

      It is definitely more popular in Japan than in Germany, they have it at every supermarket, in every shopping mall and at every convenience store. Unlike in Germany, Japanese prefer Baumkuchen without chocolate.
      I have no idea why it is so popular in Japan, but it is definitely more readily available than in Germany.

      Many bakeries/patisseries sell Baumkuchen in my city in Germany. But it’s different from the one in the photo. What you’re holding looks quite industrial (it looks much worse to me).

      And why do you think Baumkuchen isn’t popular in Germany? It’s not super trending, but it’s popular for sure.

      Japanese Baumkuchen is adjusted to Japanese taste. It’s juicier/fluffier than the German one. Japanese people mostly also prefer the Japanese one over the (drier) German one.

    17. GroundbreakingBag164 on

      It isn’t.

      The difference is that we only eat Baumkuchen around Christmas, while it’s available throughout the entire year in Japan.

      Is r/shitJapanesesay a thing?

      We usually have it in November-January

      I wonder it too! I’ve never found a good baumkuchen in the times outside of Christmas Eve, and it’s only the same default style, while in Japan you find them everywhere any time you want with different tastes and fillings. The packed pieces from supermarket taste different as for me. Btw, Japanese even know, that Baum means a tree

      The same reason why “Sushi” is more popular in Germany than in Japan
