Photo Diary: Eating Berlin

As you may have noticed, food is a major theme when I'm on vacation. I not only love eating and trying out new things, but I also love taking pictures of yummy looking food. These are all pictures from my second day in Berlin, and even though I didn't notice at the time, it turns out a lot of my day was spent drooling over delicious looking cakes and stuffing myself with macarons and bubble tea. At the end of the day when we got back to our hotel, I had two huge pieces of cake with me that I devoured in a matter of minutes. One was a slice of amazing carrot cake from a tiny cake store we found by accident on our way to dinner. The other was a slice of sticky caramel apple cake from Starbucks, and my goodness it was good! I'm starting to understand why I always put on so much weight when I'm on vacation haha.

007 - My Guilty Pleasure

Okay, so today I decided to get creative with cookies. It totally didn't work so they came out as regular chocolate chip cookies - but oh so yummy! My submission today is a photo of my guilty pleasure.

Delicious packaging from Route 29

Oh how I wish Route 29 sweets were available here in Copenhagen! Not only is the candy so yummy and delecious, but the packaging is also to die for. Cute boxes and bags with wonderfully whimsical illustrations of funny animals and creatures, accompanied by cute patterns as well as the recognizable Route 29 logo. I'd love to add some of these boxes to my collection! Hopefully I'll be able to one day.

Drooling over Happy Lady Eats

I'm a food fanatic and I just love the way food looks, smells, feels like and of course tastes like. I've come across a lot of yummy food sites and blogs over the years but none have been as delicate and delicious as the Happy Lady Eats blog. Here you find a collection of gorgeous food related images and fun foodtastic stories, and you can't help but get cravings after you've seen this. It shows food at it's most aesthetic and beautiful and it always makes me want to grab my camera and start taking pictures of my dessert.

Les Anis de Flavigny

I came across these lovely candies in Galeries Lafayette in Paris. They come in delicate oval tin boxes adorned with beautiful illustrations. Not only do they taste yummy and come in a variety of flavors, they also have a single delicate anis seed in the middle which makes the candies even more special. The story of the Les anis de Flavigny is also lovely and adds to the experience of eating the candies. The packaging can easily be reused as pillboxes, or as storage for small keepsakes.
