Stollen Loaf 40?! Is this Normal 🤨

Hello. Before you get on here with those fast fingers of fury and tell me that this is an expensive city, that I'm a silly Billy that hasn't been around the block (becase yes sure you are right and both of those things are true) I ask you; when did the price go up THAT high?? For a singular dessert loaf? Those are cake prices! Maybe it's seasonal price gouging?

I remember the days of my youth that you could get a decent Stollen at Cost Plus World Market for like 10$? But I would rather support a small biz, so I ask yall, does anyone have the connection?
