She is because she’s celebrating a double anniversary! She is celebrating 200th blog event anniversary and 19th year of Kochtopf!!!! Awesome!!! Zorra, congratulations, because not only are you celebrating anniversaries, no, in my case your blog was one of the first I visited when I started blogging. So, we “know” us now for almost 15 years.
The cake consists of 2 layers of a coconut -baiser soaked with liqueur, a filling of heavy cream and a decoration of berries.
