What Makes the Cake Endure

Honey from memory
Wildflower honey from Franconian meadows, measured by hand each dawn since 1612.
Seven spices, one silence
Cinnamon, clove, cardamom, and four more — the master's blend remains unspoken.
Oblaten as foundation
A communion-thin wafer cradles the dough, keeping every morsel tender through the seasons.
Patience in the tin
Three weeks of rest in cedar-lined Christmas tins before a single cake leaves the workshop.
