Last year I visited my family in Germany and it is obligatory that I visit the old ladies in the bakery. (Family friends) This visit they had made a lovely cream cake that actually used to be one of my favorites. I decided to have a piece and while it was not what I remembered from years gone by, it was pretty yummy. However, it was a sweltering HOT day and the cake stood in the hot sun alongside the cream and soon some of those fat green shimmery flies descended on the cake top. They literally ran tracks in the powdered sugar. ...and I seemed to be the only one bothered by it. Everyone else kept eating. I claimed that the cake was too rich for my delicate stomach. YUK!
