Babcia's Babkas
My great-grandparents moved from Poland to Philadelphia PA in the early 1900's. Many of our traditions and foods come from my Polish ancestry. Babcia is the Polish word for grandmother. Babkas are Polish sweet yeast breads typically made at Easter and included in the basket taken to church for the food blessing. I'd like to share a little of my heritage with you.
Smacznego! (Enjoy)
Cup of Tea Cakes
As the song goes (kind of): "two for tea and tea for two; tea cupcakes for me and you".
Imagine a refreshing iced black tea on a hot summer day, or maybe a warm spiced tea on a cold winter's day, or maybe an afternoon tea party with friends. I love infusing cake with a variety of tea flavors.
So, won't you join me for a “cup of tea”!
Jars of "Clake"
Jars in biblical times were everyday vessels typically made of clay, used to store or carry things like water, oil, or wine. There ls a spiritual symbolism representing human frailty (ordinary jars) holding God's spirit (extraordinary treasure). These not-so-ordinary jars are filled with fun and extraordinary cakes.
