Home sweet home

If someone ask me what I miss the most from Germany, my answer is always: The bread and the pastry. Since I met Janusz Zrodlowski (Janosh) I feel even more at home in Colorado. Janusz is an executive pastry chef and the owner of the Elegant Bakery. He won several awards for excellence at local, regional, and national pastry competitions. Every time I'm in his store I can taste why he won all the awards. Janusz's specialty is to match the bride's dress in color and pattern with the cake. Since quite some time I try to convince him to bake me some bread - of course German style. Today he surprised me, when he called me behind the counter. I couldn't believe it, when he showed me with a big smile on his face a bunch of bread loaves laying on the table in front of me. The taste test proved: Great Bread, Janusz! I took a couple of loaves home. Janusz also proudly showed me the cake he was just working on. Needless to say it looked gorgeous. I'm sure that the bride and groom will enjoy their cake tonight.
