At the end of a meal we often enjoy desserts, or sweet dishes. The desserts in Germany on our River Cruise were delightful! When we think of German desserts, stollen (yeast fruit bread), Lebkucken (gingerbread), Black Forest Cherry Cake, Apple Strudel, and rich cheesecakes probably come to mind. Those are all German favorites, as well as many lighter fares such as cream puddings, custards and fresh fruit. These are especially tasty after the heavier meals often served.
We learned of many special German food inventions and traditions. Did you know Gummi bears were invented in Germany? The ship chef demonstrated Apple Strudel on board, but that's a topic for the next blog! Here are some pictures of the German desserts we enjoyed on ship.
