Despite having lived in New Zealand for over 20 years now, one (German) Easter tradition our Aesthetikonzept Founder & CEO, Claudia keeps up, is baking German treats for a traditional Easter Brunch. Here she shares one of her classic recipes...
Claudia's Recipe For Easter Eggnog Bundt Cake
Ingredients:
Method:
Preheat oven to 175 ° Celsius.
Grease a bundt cake tin. If you don't have a bundt cake tin you can also use miniature cake or muffin tins.
Sift icing sugar. Beat eggs and vanilla until fluffy. Add in icing sugar. Slowly add oil/butter and eggnog while mixing. Mix flour, cornstarch and baking powder, sift into (wet) mixture and gently fold in.
Pour into bundt cake tin and bake at 175 ° Celsius for approx. 1.5 hours or until golden (check cake after approx. 50 minutes already).
Remove cake from the oven and tin and let cool on a rack.
To serve, dust with icing sugar or glaze with chocolate.
Best enjoyed with family or friends and accompanied by a cup of (KOSHO Byuti Organic Matcha) Tea, hot choccie, or shot of eggnog...
While waiting for the cake to cool & visitors to arrive – why not treat yourself to a mini-facial:
Exfoliate with KOSHO Multi-Effect Peeling...
Skincare ingredients absorb up to 70% better when applied after exfoliation. Gently massage a hazelnut-sized amount of the vegan-friendly KOSHO Multi-Effect Peeling into cleansed, dried skin. Use circular motions, avoiding the sensitive skin around the eyes. Moisten the face with water and continue massaging while the peeling gel turns into a nurturing cream that indulges the skin with moisture. Rinse the face with lukewarm water and dry gently for radiant skin that feels velvety smooth.
...Apply A Mask For 20 Minutes...
Unlike regular cream masks, skinicer® Repair Mask is applied and left to absorb for 20 minutes. Instead of rinsing it off, any excess is gently wiped off with a paper tissue. The mask is based on the unique microalgae extract Spiralin®, with natural antimicrobial and cell-regenerative properties. Natural astringents such as organic willow bark and witch hazel extract minimise the appearance of pores. Organic apricot kernel oil provides lightweight, silky soft moisture. The naturally effective skinicer Repair range was specifically developed for problem skin and skin conditions such as facial eczema, rosacea, acne etc. but can be used for normal, dry or combination skin just as well.
Even & Smoothen Skin Tone
While your skin should be glowing and feel wonderful after exfoliation and the mask, if you are expecting guests, then you may like to finish your "mini-facial" with light coverage like Biotulin Hydrolon Loose Powder Foundation. This innovative powder suitable for fair to medium skin tones, includes micro-pearls of the naturally skin-smoothing ingredients of Biotulin. These micro-pearls burst upon application for a more even, smoother-looking complexion and a velvety matte finish.
