19th Edition of Annual Stollen Charity Cake Sale at Mall of the Emirates: Proceeds to be donated to the Emirates Red Crescent

The 19th Annual Stollen Charity Cake Sale, held at the Central Galleria in Mall of the Emirates on 7th December 2024, was a resounding success, raising an impressive AED 105,000 to support cancer patients through the Emirates Red Crescent. This event not only continues the legacy of community support and humanitarian aid but also showcases the spirit of giving that defines the festive season.

In preparation for this beloved event, the dedicated pastry team led by Head Baker Chef Gerard, team spent the entire night baking 1,200 delectable stollen cakes. This traditional German fruit bread, known for its rich blend of nuts, spices, and dried or candied fruits, was offered for AED 100 for a full loaf (60cm) and AED 50 for a half loaf. Every dirham raised from the sale goes directly towards providing essential support for cancer patients, ensuring that the funds make a difference in their lives.

This year, the hotel team was thrilled to welcome students from Gems Jumeirah School who are members of the school’s charity committee, along with their families, who actively participated in this initiative as part of their community support efforts. Additionally, the SENSES Center for children with special needs contributed significantly by assisting with the packing, cutting, and selling of the Stollen bread. Their involvement not only enriched the event but also highlighted the importance of inclusivity and collaboration within the community.

“This event is a testament to our commitment to giving back to the community and fostering a culture of generosity.” said Slim Zaiane, General Manager of the Kempinski Hotel Mall of the Emirates. “We are immensely grateful for the support we receive each year, which allows us to make a meaningful impact on the lives of those in need. We look forward to celebrating the 20th anniversary of this wonderful tradition next year, and we invite everyone to join us in making it even more special.”
