A time when the desire for something sweet reliably arises, for a little treat that helps you get through the evening. The well-deserved afternoon snack is our breather during a busy day and holds a special place in many cultures: the Swedes love their Fika, the English cherish Afternoon Tea, and the French enjoy Gôuter.

For everyday life, moist pound cakes with crumb toppings, nuts, and spices are prepared, hearty fruity bars and cookies stay fresh for a long time, and everything can be easily taken to work, to friends, or to the playground. On weekends, baking is done with joyful leisure, and more elaborate classics like Bee Sting Cake and Cheesecake or new ideas like Chocolate Tahini Cake and Earl Grey Honey Madeleines make their way to the table. Now it’s time to get cozy!.
