Viennese Escapes
Salzburg's Demel


Annatorte
Chocolate Nougat Torte
Sin, Thy Name is Annatorte!

Celebration
Everybody dance indulge!

Oh, Brother!
He loves Dobostorte, but
flirted with Esterhazy Torte too!

Coffee Melange
Three takes, and still,
that spoonful of milkfoam
kept eluding me -
finally, I asked for a pause.

Maracujatorte
At least two aficionados in our
group of fifteen

More photographers
than at your average
Kaffeekränzchen, I bet!

Lady Anna, Again
Like any temptation with a sense of style,
she insisted on arriving with a veil

Raspberry Variations
with a touch of pistacchio:
A glimpse of the sorbet coloured salon
We celebrated in the velvety chocolate one,
it seemed to speak our mind more

Raspberry and Lavender
Salzburg's Demelinerinnen
work in sorbet colours,
not the traditional black with white accents
of the original Demel in Vienna

    Dear Readers:
    There we go again,
    another repost by madame!
    I tried to create a new one,
    only to realize that I am too stressed to relax enough to be able to be creative. Or better, work on two creative projects and studying for more midterm exams simply stretches my abilities to a point where I apparently can't to anything creative for the time being (and be it only for this morning, who knows!).
    I hope you are all enjoying a good and productive day, some happy bliss involved too,
    with warm regards and best wishes,
    Merisi

    I gain weight just looking at your photos. Of course they make me want to run to the kitchen and bake. How does carrot cake sound?

    Get thee behind me, Satan! I put on pounds just reading this. Can't get over the comfortable velvety chairs and sofas - how could you ever leave such a place? Best of luck with the exams, Merisi - I hope it's all coming to an end soon?

    At the moment here, I can spot these sorbet colours in all gardens thanks to the many blooming flowers, especially magnolias, apple trees,lilacs and wisterias... or "prunus" (Japanese cherry-trees?)...
    I love your palette !
