duking it out for a piece of the pie

MY PERSONAL BAKING LOG TO SHARE THE FUN OF IT WITH FRIENDS.

I made my first baking experience at home in my mum’s kitchen. What I would always use was this only baking book we had at home. It’s a standard book from the GDR that you’d find in almost every household. My grandma has the exact same one and probably our neighbour does so too, still.  Today I prepared a Frankfurter Kranz which is a very traditional German cake. I believe the urge to bake it results from these baking book memories since it is the cake you can see in the very background, topped with cherries and cream. I have actually never ever eaten it nor has anyone in my family ever baked one.  Assembly of the cake tomorrow. I am excited! Can’t wait to take a picture of it. Can’t wait for the 70ties kitsch.
