When covid-19 entered our lives some 10 months back, we could have never imagined what impact it would have on our lives and still has. As so much has already been written about this, I will not bore you with my personal perspective on the situation. I will however share with you some of the… Lees verder
For Dutch, scroll down! Dear all, How the world has changed the last few days! A lot of us spend the days at home, with or without work, with or without kids. A real challenge for all of us! My work as a cake baker has almost come to a stop, as opposed to everyone… Lees verder
It’s been a while since the last update! I suppose that’s good news really, as no updates means there is no time and no time means we are really busy baking. And baking, that’s what it’s all about. But now, on the first day of a two weeks baking vacation, I feel that an update… Lees verder
