Macarones

There has got to be a first time for everything! 

 My friend and I made four different kinds of macarones this Sunday. It took us about 5 hours, they were 5 hours of fun though! These are clementine macarones in a light pink colour.

And these are licorice flavoured once-very tasty! The two last flavours were lemon (with lemon curd!) and chocolate. The lemon once are my favorites and I can say that I am happy with the results. I'm sure I'll try some new macarones soon! This is the recipe we used for the licorice macarones: http://sotasaker.com/lakritsmacarons/

Lemon and Vanilla Cheesecake

In the end of summer my best friend's sister got married in Umeå. I was at the wedding too, helping out with the desserts, the preparations and the waitering. It was a beautiful day, a perfect couple and a wonderful wedding cake... To be honest, my first thoughts were 'What? You can't have cheesecake as a weddingcake!?!' ... But when I ate it... Let's just say I changed my mind! It was the best cheesecake I can even imagine!

A few weeks ago another trainee at Törners went to a bakery in Umeå to see how they work there and to learn from them too. It turns out, this bakery is the same one that makes the wonderful wedding cheesecakes!!! AND she got the recipe! Not to mention, it is (as the girls, that my best friend is babysitting sometimes, would've said over in Vancouver) EASY PEACY, LEMON SQUEEZY!
