German Pastry Shop
German Pastry Shop is the name of the place. There’s no second guessing what kind of establishment this is, its right there in the store title. No clever or kitschy names, just genuine 100-percent German pastry baking going on in this joint. Owned and operated by Wolfgang and Edeltraud Hatmann, they are nothing but serious about serving up authentic German cuisine. (When you say their names in your head, make sure to use your best German accent. Try it, it’s fun!)
Aside from Stolen, Wolfgang and Edeltraud have three other German Christmas goodies. Butter cookies, butter spritz, and hazelnut macaroons. Let me just say right here that I’ll be heading back there ASAP for some more butter cookies. Upon my first taste of these cookies, I had died and gone to Bundesrepublik Deutschland.
Mmmmmmmm … butter cookies … mmmmmmm. (This is the part where you imagine me drooling like Homer Simpson.)
Now as for the other two varieties, the butter spritz and the hazelnut macaroons, well I maybe could’ve done without them. I’m almost positive this opinion is purely based on my American taste buds, but they had a different taste than I’m used to in a Christmas cookie. I actually can’t even describe them due to the lack of flavor.
So go! Beeilen Sie sich! Run and get some butter cookies! I like exclamation points! I mean what I say when I use exclamation points! So gibt!
