Hey and welcome to my baking blog Aslaugs Bakery.<\/span><\/p>\n

First, let me say thank you. I really appreciate that you have chosen this blog to find inspiration and <\/span>let me<\/span> guide you through your next baking project. I sincerely hope that you\u2019ll find it pleasing and that you\u2019ll return when you feel the urge for more baked goods.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

I am Cecilia Aslaug Bendixen, born and bred in Slagelse, Denmark.<\/span><\/p>\n

My mom is from Sweden, so I often travel there to visit family.\u00a0
<\/span>This means that I\u2019ve grown up with both danish and Swedish traditions when it comes to baking. And many of my recipes have traces of that. The Swedish people love to use different kinds of spices all year round. Especially cinnamon, cardamom and saffron, and I absolutely love that! In Denmark, spices are mostly an autumn or Christmas thing. And many danish people don\u2019t even know what saffron is. But they do love their danish pastry and whipped cream cakes, and I totally get that.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

I love being creative and I\u2019ve had a lot of hobbies throughout my life. I\u2019ve played the violin and viola, been in theatre plays and musicals, going to dance classes and choir. And I\u2019ve been a scout for 10 years too. I also love to draw and read books. But most of my time I spend on baking and food photography, as you could probably guess.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m also quite interested in history, more specifically in historical baking. My family has participated in several Viking Markets all my life and we still participate in Trelleborg Viking Festival every summer. As my interest in baking grew, so did my curiosity for historical baking. What did they bake in the different time periods?\u00a0 What ingredients did they have? What possibilities were there with the ingredients and tools they had available in the different time periods?<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

I started the blog Aslaugs Bakery back in 2017. I had just finished my basic course at ZBC pastry chef school and had to stop my education due to mental health issues.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been struggling with my mental and physical health for several years. Personality disorders, anxiety and stress, but also fibromyalgia, which involves a lot of pain and almost constant exhaustion. <\/span>Because of this, I couldn\u2019t continue my education.
<\/span>But I still loved spending time in the kitchen and baking a lot. It was one of the few things that still got me out of bed when there was nothing else to motivate me.<\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore I found it obvious to start this blog. As a small project for myself to keep me busy, but also as a way to have a digital baking book I could always return to when I wanted to bake some of my favourite cakes and bread.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the same time, I always get so happy when people come to me for advice and want help <\/span>with<\/span> their baking projects. To share the joy of baking is so wonderful.
<\/span>So I thought this blog was another great way to share all my experience and knowledge with you!<\/span><\/p>\n

I hope all of these recipes will bring a lot of amazing results and some happy days in the kitchen.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
