Merry Christmas, friends! Wishing you all a wonderful holiday with lots of delicious food! =) Raw Honey Cheesecake has always been a favorite tasty treat for us. It's one of the absolute BEST types of foods which allows the honey to truly express itself! We used our Marmeleiro honey for this one and it really shines! Making raw/vegan honey cheesecakes reminds me of our time in Berlin. My first apartment was located in a neighborhood that had a cafe that offered seasonal raw/vegan cheesecakes on rotation throughout the year. During this time, I really got inspired to try making them at home. This recipe right here was developed by our friend Regina. We wanted to create a layered cake with Christmas colors: red, green and white! This is the perfect indulgence to add to your holiday dessert table! Try it this week and let us know what you think! :-)

Baking Christmas cookies is a family tradition many families cherish. Growing up, I have many memories spending hours baking a wide variety of cookies with my Oma in her Munich kitchen. German-speaking countries have a tradition of making their own jam in the summertime and preserving it in their basements to use during the wintertime. A lot of these cookie recipes are filled with different kinds of jam. Traditional recipes call for a lot of sugar, nowadays Thomas and I prefer using honey instead and we try to substitute it as much as possible. =) Honey chia jam is one of our favorite easy alternatives to make! Give these Linzer cookies as try and let us know what you think! We love the addition of ground hazelnuts in these cookies, I think they must be my absolute favorite nut! :-) Regina used stars and heart cut outs making them versatile for other holidays and occasions. Enjoy!

Baklava is one of those pastries that bring back many memories. When Thomas and I lived in Berlin, there were many neighborhood shops that sold freshly made baklava. Occasionally we treated ourselves to a piece or two. The honey you choose to use for a recipe such as a baklava, really imparts a lot of taste. Therefore making it even more important that you use super tasty honey! ;-)
