Christmas preparations - Sweet as Pie

The last Tokaj-Hegyalja Market of 2013... December 8th 2013

We have a first! Producers can finally bring homemade cakes to sell at the market - provided they have made at least one of the ingredients. Yum! We all love cake, I think. So this should offer some special flavours as we get to taste what our talented artisans bake when they're not making their jams and cordials, oils and vinegars, hams or cheeses.


Sitting around together in Kriszta's kitchen, we admired the wall calender - and decided to make one to celebrate the market. We have plenty of photos to choose from and it looks great. It will be available at the market on Sunday 8th. As well as colourful and inspiring images from markets past, the calender also gives you the theme for next year's markets AND dates for the best festivals in the year. Truly a way to help make sure you know what's going on in the Tokaj Wine Region has to offer! (Next year's themes in our next post.)
