Cinnamon Rolls with warm Caramel Nut Sauce

Last weekend, there just had to be Cinnamon Rolls. I took the base recipe from my book and did some experimenting with the frosting. Since I have recently become a true caramel lover, I tried a warm caramel nut sauce. So, I simply melted brown sugar, butter, heavy cream (all from the top of the calorie leaderboard) together with almonds. The taste was incredible. Compared to traditional cinnamon rolls the sauce is way thinner and is more ‚absorbed‘ by the roll. The result is a soaked mixture of pure yummieness.

Crafty Book Jacket for „Backen mit Love“

I started to work on some crafty book jackets for my German baking book „Backen mit Love“. Main reason was that my personal copy of the book needed a cover, but when I saw all those cute fabrics that I have collected, I just had to start designing. Here´s the first that is finished. So cute. I know what you might be thinking. Can I have one ? Honestly, I don´t know yet. I guess yes. It depends on how many I will have in the end and whether there is a nice idea on how to allocate them. I don´t want to sell them or simply do a lottery. Maybe you have some ideas. Although, I am not making promises, I know myself, maybe it will be just to hard to let them go. I keep you posted.

Strawberry Cheesecake

For last Sunday’s cake buffet (Pictures coming up this week, I promise), I wanted to do another Cheesecake variation. I love Cheesecake, so I tried one with Strawberries. Looking at it, it feels way more summer’ish than March. My only problem was that at first guests did not really dare to cut it with all those beautiful fruits on top.

Strawberry Cheesecake

The recipe is a variation of the New York Cheesecake that you can find in my German book „Backen mit Love“ (click on the pic to enlarge). For it´s beautiful colour, I just added 3 tablespoon of mashed strawberries to the filling and replaced the blueberry topping with sour cream and fresh strawberries. My original recipe below. If you are not so into German, you can find lot´s of New York Cheesecake recipe variations on the internet.

My Book in Sweet Paul Magazine

Today is the day. German Sweet Paul magazine spring issue is out and 5 entire pages are dedicated to my book. I don´t have to mention again that I love it. I am also very happy for my mum, as they picked her cheesecake recipe as one of the cakes that are featured. So, what’s in it for you if you buy the mag ? As promised you can win one of three crafty handmade super cute Sweet Paul bookmarks that I designed for them together with „Backen mit Love“ (which you already have, of course). However, I have heard that giving and receiving gifts makes people happy. So give the book to beloved ones and, by all means, keep the bookmark to yourself. Good Luck.
