LEIMER Mutschelmehl
What is a “Mutschel”?

Mutschel is a Swabian pastry that is often shaped into elaborate forms. Also known as "Mitschele" or "Mütschele", the pastry can be traced back to the late Middle Ages, making it a true antique among baked goods. As the Mutschel is made from white flour, which used to be valuable, it was a real festive pastry for a long time. Today, you can find them all year round at traditional Swabian bakeries.

Customs & Tradition

The special thing about the Mutschel is its fluffy yeast dough, which is formed into a characteristic shape and often artistically decorated. The star-shaped Mutschel is best known from the region around Reutlingen in Baden-Württemberg, where the pastry is still closely associated with fun and games: on Mutschel Day, the Thursday after Epiphany, people play “Mutscheln". The winner of this dice game receives a magnificently decorated Mutschel as a prize. And this is just one of many customs that have developed around the Mutschel over the centuries.

Our "Mutschelmehl"

What makes LEIMER Mutschelmehl so special? When developing Mutschelmehl, we closely followed the traditional Swabian pastry. As is customary at LEIMER, we always bake the bread for our Mutschelmehl fresh. Our “Mutschel Bread” is a light, crust-free and particularly fine-pored white bread that is ground into fine Mutschelmehl. LEIMER Mutschelmehl can be used in many different ways: In addition to classic breading for meat, fish and vegetables, it is wonderful as a base for homemade soup garnishes, for loosening up cake batters of all kinds or for binding liquids in savory and sweet dishes. There are no limits to your creativity.
