gâteau de milan

  • Media owner nia

In German-speaking Europe, Christmas biscuits are a very important part of this festive season. Every region has its own types of biscuits.
In Switzerland, the ‘Mailänderli’ or ‘gâteau de milan’ is the most commonly baked and eaten Christmas biscuit. What this biscuit has to do with Milan is unknown. In any case, this biscuit is not known in Italy.
The recipe first appeared in a Basel cookbook around 1780.
It is my husband's favourite Christmas biscuit and the design for this year's Christmas card.

This is such a great scrapbook page - it has story (so important to me), a nice linear design, perfect elements, and a touch of red! Nicely done!

The variety of European biscuits is fascinating! The focus on the star biscuit using a mask and stitched circles works beautifully. Adding the baking elements with red adds a nice bright festive note to the layout. I love the textures in the paper also. Beautiful and delicious!

I particularly like scrapbooking because it allows you to tell everyday stories visually, which is not always easy.
Told ‘only’ verbally, they would be mundane, but scrapbooking gives them an artistic touch.

This is a beautiful page Nia.. Love that you are getting into the holiday baking mode :) I love the rolling pin element to accent the masked photo of the cookie star cutter and dough. Love the design for your holiday card Perfection!
