Steps:
- For the bread: Preheat oven to 300º. Grease a 5-cup loaf pan with butter, then dust with 2 tbsp. of the flour, tapping out excess, and set aside. Put chocolate, almonds, candied fruit, raisins, vanilla sugar, cinnamon, and remaining flour into a large bowl, mix well, and set aside.
- Whisk egg yolks and granulated sugar together in a medium bowl until thick and pale yellow, then fold into chocolate-flour mixture and set batter aside. Whisk egg whites in a clean medium bowl until stiff but not dry peaks form. Fold one-third of the egg whites at a time into batter. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Tip bread out onto a rack set over a pan and allow to cool completely.
- For the glaze: Put chocolate, sugar, and 7 tbsp. water into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until smooth and glossy, 15-20 minutes. Allow glaze to cool slightly.
- Spread one-third of the glaze over top and sides of bread and set aside to let glaze harden slightly, 20-30 minutes. Repeat process 2 more times with remaining glaze. Set bread aside to let glaze harden, about 2 hours. Bread may be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
