Section 8: Bakery: Items 829 - 926

Please note that I have linked as many of the 1001 to links on the web, such as wikipedia (those that have links are underlined). I have also indicated in italics and bold, the ones that I have tried. I anticipate over the course of the year, writing about each ingredient, but for the purpose of these lists, I felt that a general list was probably the best.

Bakery: 71/97

Not that I am being a bitch about the list, but where on earth is the "petit pain au chocolat" on this list??? They have a friggin' chocolate chip cookie, but no "petit pain au chocolat" or "biscotti". This bakery list, although thourough, is totally incomplete. I am going to have to see what else they are missing, but there are already two key things. On a better note, they have included the master pastry chef Pierre Herme and his fabulous Gerbet Macaroon. Two thumbs up to that.

I am also quite interested to see that many of these are European Christmas specialties. As I am heading to France for the holidays and will be spending quite a bit of time in Germany and Switzerland, I am so excited to revisit tasting many of them. Some key ones that I noticed were:

• Lussekatter
• Birnbrot (which I haven't tried :-))
• Stollen
• Panettone ( a good one is one of my favourites!)
• Nurnberger Elisenlebkuchen
• Basler Leckerli (mmmmmmm)
• Amaretto di Saronno
• Brandy Snap ( a personal family favourite that has been a part of every Christmas dinner since I was a baby. Very British. You fill them with whipped cream and they are so yummy!!!)
• Baumkuchen
• British Fruitcake

So many treats at the holidays. I am very excited. God help my waist line.......

Happy tasting. Steph
