progress
We have been making this strudel for years. Even in my youth, my grandmother used to make me happy with this strudel and I was happy when the nuts and apricots that grew in our garden could be used in the cake. Nowadays, the neighbours sometimes come to our house for coffee and, as we make this strudel often, they like to munch on it. The coffee and the delicious strudel go well together. I recommend making this cake whenever the mood strikes 🙂 The sweet tooth always enjoys it. My husband takes this strudel here and there on business trips and it lasts him a week 🙂 I love to bake it, I love to give the joy in this form away. Every cake tastes good when made with love.
