As often said before, we have people from many countries of the world at the company where I work. People like to share something from their country or culture. Mostly these are little snacks or something like that.
So Elem brought little cookies that are used during the celebration of the Sugarfest. These were very tasteful, although they were very sweet,
Annacarla, who just returned from Italy, brought also something from her country. She brought cakes with the name “Baba”. She warned us that was a little alcohol in these cakes. What she didn’t tell was these cakes were drowned with pure rum!
Oh I am not complaining… these cakes tasted very well. But I also am sure that more then two of these cakes would turned out badly. Eating one of these cakes felt like drinking a glass of rum in one pull!
Here two links with some more information about the cakes:

Some weekend soon I will try to make those at home 🙂
Ohoh…. Make them at home? And we eat them just as you did today somewhere after your first cup of coffee in the morning? Oh my 🙂
