This year traditional Danish konfekt – with marzipan, nougat, nuts and chocolate with fillings of various dried fruit bathed in liqueurs and brandy – were made together with my friend Nataliya who came to visit us from Kiev. A full day in chocolate and nougat added to her appreciation of Danish Christmas Traditions as well as nullified all wishes of sweet dark pleasures for the weeks to come. Feel free to offer.

The family tasted our hard work with great pleasure honorably naming them “avanceret konfekt” – in English and very modest – “sophisticated chocolates”.

Got back to my treasure after all Christmas dinners and lunches with a firm decision to finalize the project by the New Year – but this is in the next post.
