Coffee with Rhubarb Strudel, anyone?
Demel's seasonal Temptations


Rhubarb Strudel
and Viennese Coffee Melange

My inner helpless self,
unable to resist Demel's
in season strudels

Comfort Box
filled with candied violets,
Empress Elisabeth's favorite indulgance.
They revive your senses.
Trust me ;-)

  9. Yum! I had a piece of rhubarb and cherry pie at a friend's the other night and it was a fine combination.

    Your white roses of a previous post are ethereal.

  10. NYC,

    Photowannabe,
    Sue, food carries a lot of our memories, doesn't it?

    Nathanaëlle,
    merci beaucoup! :-)

    Cathy,
    I'd love to have tea with it too! :-)
    (Mostly right now, I'd love to have a piece of the strudel!)

    Vicki Lane,
    so interesting, I have never come across a rhubarb-cherry pie! I love the rhubarb-strawberry pie made by a (once) small Virginian company, "Mom's Pies" - it had a filling so finger-licking good and the best crust I have ever tasted. A scoop of Eddy's vanilla ice cream on top of the warm pie and I was in heaven. I never ate only one piece! Definitely my favorite pie ever.

  11. I'm told that we grow the best rhubarb in the world here in the jolly old UK, and we love it. JP loves it more than I and has even taught himself to cook it.
