A very simple to make rhubarb streusel cake that’s mostly shortbread and big, buttery crumbs. Roasted rhubarb adds extra flavour.

Stroopwafel means syrup waffle. Let me translate: caramel waffle cookie! It’s a thin sandwich cookie with a layer of sticky, malty caramel in between.

This marzipanstollen is my version of the traditional German Christmas bread. It’s dense and sweet and it’s flavour increases the longer you store it. No raisins, no candied citrus peel.

This year I finally wanna share my favourite German Christmas treat with you. It’s called dominosteine. It’s a piece of lebkuchen (gingerbread) that is layered with jelly (apricot in most cases) and marzipan and covered in chocolate.

The smell of poppy seeds and vanilla fresh from the oven is the best thing ever. Combine that with buttery streusel and a fresh yeast bake and you are basically in heaven.

I have heard so many times that this recipe is the best vegan tiramisú ever and after all these years I am inclined to believe it.
