One of the greatest pleasures in life is relaxing at a café, sipping a caffeinated beverage and nibbling at a freshly baked dessert, surrounded by the aromas of roasting coffee and baked butter. The ultimate expression of the coffeehouse is found in the beautiful cafés of Vienna, Budapest, and Prague. These establishments literally became second homes to the writers, artists, and celebrities of these cities, and embedded in Austro-Hungarian culture. Coffeeandcake.org celebrates these legendary baked goods and teaches you how to create them in your own home. As the author of the best-selling book, Kaffeehaus, Rick Rodgers is uniquely equipped to share these iconic recipes. While many of the classes will concentrate on the exquisite desserts of the Austro-Hungarian empire, Rick will also explore the cakes, tarts, and other pastries of the American diner, British bake shop, French pâtisserie, and Italian pasticceria. Please join Rick for coffee and cake and bring a new world of baking into your kitchen!
