Kartoffelsuppe (potato soup) is a favourite from the Cologne region

I have been enjoying the snow this winter, and nothing beats a walk through our local palace gardens here in Karlsruhe to take a few winter pictures, then coming home to a hearty bowl of warm soup!

Happy New Year!

Gugelhupf

A Gugelhupf is a southern German term for a marble cake. Gugel is translated as "hood" and hupfen as "spring," as the cake rises slowly in its form whilst being baked. There are many variations of the Gugelhupf and today I have glammed it up for New Years Eve, and believe me... it doesn't taste as sugary as it looks!

These liitle guys are easy to make for the holiday period. No baking involved, just pop them in the snow (if you are lucky to have the white stuff!) or leave in a cool spot to set.
