Edit: Südstadt Gebäck now has it’s own home on this website!
@ Weihnachtsbasar Körnerstraße
This Sunday there will be a limited edition of Südstadt Gebäck (South City Baking) available at the Christmas Bazaar, Körnestr, Ehrenfeld. Look out for the Ehren Manufaktur stall – that’s where you’ll find them.
Never heard of Südstadt Gebäck? I’m not surprised. It’s only been around for a couple of months and it’s only produced when I feel like. I make it, homemade, with love. At the moment I’m doing Christmas Specialties. At the bazaar on Sunday you’ll be able get yourself a wee baggy of English-Spekulatius (it’s English because I like to mix in some dried fruits, nuts and lots of ginger).
I’ll be hanging around at the Bazaar and the Ehren Manufaktur some of the time as well. Drop in and say hi – I’d enjoy that!
By the way – you’ll be wanting to try the Ehren Chutney, shown below, as well. Not cake but very yummy!
It’s a pity – you’ll have to wait till next year to visit the Körner Street Christmas Basar again. It’s the best Christmas market I’ve ever been to – loved it! Relaxed, friendly, christmasy but not overdone. All the wares are from the people for the people. There’s nothing commercial. But don’t be mislead by the homemade character either – the quality is extremely good. There’s hot food, mulled wine, hot hugos and all the yummy stuff to warm a belly in the cold.
I did find cake as well. Actually, an overwhelming assortment of tempting cakes. I grabbed some absolutely fabulous cupcakes to take home from a couple of girls raising money for charity. The wee cakes looked professionally garnished, were vegan, and tasted scrumptious.
I’d like to be able to tell where else you can get these beauties. Unfortunately we’ll all have to wait till next Christmas – see you there!
In the end I only got a brief look around the bazaar on Körner Street. I stayed around the little chutney stall most of time, talking to the friendly people who stopped to try the wares. Cookies were sold and it was an enjoyable day.
