Sig's "Hutzelbrot" from Germany
Hutzel is a German word for dried fruit. In and around Stuttgart the Hutzelmännchen is a little man made out of dried fruit. People think of this as a little imp playing tricks that perhaps thought of the bread in the first place.
It is a very fruity bread more like cake and served with just butter is great with afternoon coffee or tea.
