The US celebrates the “National Beer Day” today – that is enough reason to make something with beer, right?! ;) Here in Germany we actually celebrate the International Day of the Beer – but that is in August. Way too far in the future. I want some nice Guinness Cake with Sour Cream Glaze now!
If you ask people from all around the world which cake they like the most, you will often get the answer “cheesecake”! In the US you will also find a lot of people that like carrot cakes a lot. Her in Germany we are not that fond of carrot cakes – even though Starbucks does a good job in trying to convince us. Their carrot cake is awesome ;) Anyway. I am a huge carrot cake fan and love to bake it. I am not eating much of it though (because of all the sugar) but my friends and colleagues are very happy each time they get a slice of goodness ;P
I am a big fan of Easter, to be honest. Not necessarily because of the rabbits and everything that comes along with them. We could also celebrate with little pigs or otters if you ask me – no difference ;P I like Easter because you have a few days off, the weather is normally nice already and of course because of all the nice food that is served at those days… mmm! This year everything is different. I still wanted to have a little bit of Easter atmosphere, though. That’s why I made some delicious Double Chocolate Easter Egg Cookies…
Cooking recipes on “Bake to the roots”? Some of you will be quite surprised I guess – the recipes you normally find on here are all for baked goods ;) Well… not too long ago I asked (on Instagram) if you’d like to see some cooking recipes here from time to time. To my surprise there was quite a lot of interest – so from now on you’ll get something cooked too on here, not only cakes and such. Let’s start with “The World’s Best Bolognese Sauce” – if you wanna do something, do it right ;P
Hi and Hello from my Home Office! I guess many out there do the same thing right now – working from home! Well.. let’s make the best out of that situation. Let’s have a nice slice of cheesecake. A nice Baklava Cheesecake with Nuts, Honey and a little bit of Ritter Sport chocolate – just enough to make the flavors of this cheesecake perfect ;) Does anybody want some?! Line up and we will see how long it lasts…
It’s “Bake Together” time – once again! You might have read this already several times this month if you are coming by here on a regular basis. Beginning of the month we had a whole week of “Bake Together” recipes – all vegan. A really nice collection you can find here and on Zimtkeks & Apfeltarte. Today we are doing our “regular thing” which is always happening on the last Sunday of the month. Well… I will explain in a moment – let’s have a look at this delicious Spinach & Tomato Frittata first ;)
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
