Christmas baking - A little taste and cooking culture from our old home ;-)
Duration
People
Christmas in Germany – that definitely means cinnamon stars and Christmas stollen. The most famous stollen is undoubtedly the Dresden stollen. Sultanas, candied orange peel, almonds, marzipan and lots and lots of icing sugar are essential ingredients. And for the cinnamon stars, you'll need cinnamon on top. We'll bake these two sweet classics with you in a pre-Christmas atmosphere. At the end, you'll take home a bag of delicious cinnamon stars and your own stollen. And while the dough is rising, you can simply enjoy a relaxing time in our festively decorated forest sauna :-)
ON THE TABLE
Almond marzipan stollen / cinnamon star cookies / coffee & tea

The programme
The courses take place in small groups and begin with a relaxed aperitif (non-alcoholic) to get to know each other. After a brief introduction to the dishes and an explanation of the ingredients, we prepare the dishes together under Sami's guidance. We cook with excellent ingredients from the region. We then eat the finished dishes at our large dining table in the lovingly furnished Achipelago kitchen.
The courses are designed to be fun and give you an insight into the aromatic diversity of german cooking culture. In each course, you will receive valuable information on the respective topic and the culture. So that you can recreate the dishes at home, you will receive a personal, beautifully designed recipe from us at the end of the cooking event.
The courses are suitable for all cooking skills and are an excellent opportunity to immerse yourself in the flavours of the Finnish archipelago and inspire your own creativity. To ensure that everyone in the course understands everything, the courses are mainly held in English. However, we also speak German and Finnish and can switch between languages.
