Fresh Apricot Cake (Aprikosenkuchen)

Fresh Apricot Cake (Aprikosenkuchen) by the Kitchen Maus

I’m obsessed with this fresh apricot cake right now.  It’s nothing  fancy but it’s perfect for summer, especially if you’re going to have coffee and cake with family. The slightly lemon-y vanilla cake is simple, fluffy and pairs wonderuflly with the slightly tart apricots.  Apparently, it’s something I’ve been missing in my life here because I’m having such…

Homemade Spezi (Cola + Orange)

October 30, 2014 by The Kitchen Maus 19 Comments

  If you’ve ever spent any time in Southern Germany and are a soda drinker, you’ve likely had the pleasure of trying a Bavarian soda specialty called Spezi.  I say pleasure because I’ve never really run into anyone that didn’t like it once they’ve tried it.  Generally, folks become pretty enthusiastic about it.   Unfortunately, it’s not…
