Hallo! You are here because something in you wants to cook or bake or learn more about German food. Many of my recipes have taken me years to perfect and most are inspired by my Oma Sieghilde's authentic German cooking that I grew up with in Germany. Please stay a while and drool, then bookmark your favorite German recipes and come back to make them. I hope my recipes help to make you feel closer to Germany and I can't wait to hear how you like them! Alles Liebe, Sophie

German Recipes
When people think of German recipes, they often think just of pretzels and sausage. Of course that's a great place to start, But I encourage you to try my MANY German recipes ranging from Flammkuchen (German bacon and onion flatbread) to Frikadellen (German hamburgers), homemade Döner Kebab (Germany's number 1 fast food) and my homemade German donuts (Berliner).

Hallo, I'm Sophie!
When I first moved to the United States in 2009, I started to terribly miss the German way of eating! I still miss a nice weekend brunch with crusty Brötchen and pastries, Döner Kebab and German cake and coffee time at 3 p.m.! So I decided to educate my fellow American friends by writing about German customs and food in an approachable way with easy-to-follow recipes! I hope you stay a while and decide to cook and bake with me!
Mit viel Liebe
