Try Pyrex baking dishes and AirBake baking sheets or bread pans. Also, maybe getting a bread making machine might work too. Plus, make sure your oven is cooking at the correct temp testing the temp with a thrermometer.

2 possible solutions:
1) she's still baking it at too high a temperature. This is usually the case when baked goods are the right color on top, but burned on the bottom. Has she baked it at a temperature as low as 325 degrees? I think you can go that low in baking bread
2) She needs to use a baking sheet that has air insulation. This means that the baking pan has two metal sheets divided by a space that contains air. It's very hard to burn anything on this kind of pan. If you leave things in the oven too long, they just get very dark brown on all sides, and dry out, but they don't burn.
If I were your wife I would try both of the above.

Lower the temp in the oven. If you have one of those ovens that has its own mind put a empty cookie sheet on the rack just below the top rack with the stollen on it. It is sounds like it to hot and the direct heat needs to be defered by another pan.

put the loaf pan in a roasting pan, put in the oven, take a jug of water and pour into the roasting pan untill halfway up the side of the bread pan or at least a couple of inches up the side. Try it it works!

No offense, but I think she's tried about everything. I would try baking something else, really. :-)
