Preparing a cake stall for the Christmas season takes extensive preparation, according to owner Maggie Talbot. She and a team of 8 people work 5 days a week for 4 months ahead of Christmas to get ready. While traditional ornament stalls used to be more popular at Christmas markets, nowadays food and drink stalls like donut stands sell much more. The Bratwurst sausage stall tends to be the most popular stall throughout most Christmas markets, with long lines and high sales each year.
