I live in Germany and have been frustrated with the flour situation, too! Luckily I'm right on the border to France so maybe I can get the same flour you did - where did you find it? A standard grocery store? And what was it called?...

I'm in southern Germany (near the Swiss-French border) and have been for 13 years now. You won't be able to get everything like you're used to but what you need to bring along depends on what you're accustomed to using and where you'll...

@gatorcake: I wasn't referring to your post, rather one that came after it in which it was obvious that the poster hadn't read and understood the situation completely. My second sentence referenced that misunderstanding. Unfortunately I...

Please, before criticizing the OP, read the posts more carefully and you might find she has every right to be upset. There was one comment on the tutorial and then there were quite a few on a tutorial-inspired cake photo. I, for one, can...
