One of the most delicious traditions here in Germany for the pre-Lenten season is Krapfen. Basically, a donut to the max, these beauties are filled with exotic things like berry and marscapone (our favorite, it is the pink one above with the marzipan heart), different liquors, chocolate, vanilla or just plain jam. The flavorings range from the ridiculous to the sublime as you will see below.
Seriously, how is anyone supposed to be eating healthy with all of this going on in the bakery windows around town?
The beauty shot of our favorite Krapfen:
And, I wanted to make sure that you all got to see the Aperol flavored version, found in our friends' K and I's local bakery. Complete with a small syringe of Aperol liquor...filled with apricot jam.
Yum! I love the Aperol one, think I would have to try it simply for novelty's sake.
