The Mutschel is a traditional star-shaped bread from Reutlingen Germany. The pastry and the corresponding Mutscheltag (Mutschel Day) have probably existed since the 13th century. Mutscheln are roughly circular and come in various sizes: usually approximately six inches in diameter but bakeries often offer breads three or more feet in diameter. They are sometimes made in sweet varieties.There are several theories about the origin of the bread form.
