Kulich is a traditional yeasted cake that is filled with eggs, milk, butter, honey, sugar, sweet spices, and studded with nuts and candied fruit. In order to symbolize the Resurrection of our Savior, it is allowed to rise high. Then it is baked to a golden brown, topped with a rich sugar frosting and the letters XB, an abbreviation of the traditional Russian Paschal greeting meaning "Christ is Risen."
The ingredients speak for themselves: wheat flour, whole milk, sweet cream butter, fresh eggs, West Virginia honey, sliced almonds, candied orange peel, sugar, yeast, sea salt, ground cardamom, and vanilla. Topped with frosting and candied orange peel.
Send a kulich to your loved ones in honor of the Paschal Feast!

I have ordered the Kulich for several years in a row now, since my mother has become too elderly and infirm to make it herself for the family, and I am a disaster in the kitchen! It is consistently delicious, always shipped fresh and on time. I will continue to order it annually, and expect to enjoy it with my family for many Paschas to come. Thank you for providing this wonderful product.
Always delicious. I order this every year from Holy Cross Monastery for my Pascha Basket.
The Kulich came packaged really well and you can smell the almond through the wrapping! It looks delicious and we were all sad to set it aside in the freezer! The kids especially loved the twizzler decor on the top!
We have been buying kulich from the Holy Cross monastery for several years now and were not disappointed. Thank you!
Very good! Will buy again.
