It would be really nice if Migros could make an Epiphany cake that is made without palm oil and with sweeteners instead of sugar.

Somehow I was misunderstood. Actually, I just wanted to point out to MIGROS that their search for alternatives to palm oil could be found in their own MIGUSTO recipes. "Tamara wrote: I know that our baking department is looking hard for alternatives to palm oil in their products. Where possible, we are switching to other fats. I have put your request to them and hope that we will soon be able to offer you an Epiphany cake without palm oil."

An Epiphany cake without raisins and palm oil would be really great; even better would be an Epiphany cake without raisins but with small pieces of chocolate in it (instead of raisins). If you're going to use sugar, then use chocolate ;-)

Hi Kritisch, please excuse the misunderstanding, I have checked with the specialist department again. Hail sugar is mentioned in our Migusto recipe. So this Epiphany cake is not a palm oil-free version. Why is that? Because the sugar is coated with palm oil so that it does not melt on the product during baking. Although there is palm oil-free sugar, the baking process makes it unsuitable for baked goods such as Epiphany cakes or crêpes. Kind regards, Heidi

Hello Heidi Hail sugar is not coated with palm oil by itself. This is just another "fart" to make a product (Grittibänz, Dreikönigskuchen) different from what it used to be. Hail sugar has always been used to decorate these products, even before palm oil found its way into the products of wholesalers. MIGROS also sells normal hail sugar without palm oil for use at home and this also seems to fulfill its purpose. So I can't understand the argument that the sugar should only melt on the cake in industrial production.

Hi Kritisch, thank you for your contribution. We make an Epiphany cake with loaf sugar, which we bake almost ready and then freeze. We then bake it fresh in the Migros store. We need this special hail sugar so that the hail sugar retains the desired shape. We regularly check the market for possible alternatives and endeavor to be able to replace the hail sugar in the future. Kind regards, Luisa

I have no idea. I read the ingredients of the Dreikönigskuchen and there was no palm oil in it and the hail sugar was also runny like before, which I thought was great. Hail sugar and the plastic packaging don't get along and that's why the hail sugar that is treated without palm oil runs, as Migros explained to me (2018)
