A few months ago, after I had posted a recipe for "Ma'amoul", a friend of mine proposed that I start a movement callled "Pastries For Peace". That idea struck me as good and a few days later I advertised for the event...Unfortunately, although the concept was good, not many people contributed to my little event. Was it a bad time of the year to lauch it? I don't know...
Anyhow, I still received a few gorgeous contributions and I wish to thank all participants for having taken part in that event and baked magnificent creations!
Dada @ Un Déjeuner Au Soleil (France) - Pruneaux A La Fleur d'OrangerPrunes filled with ricotta and flavored with orange blossom water and lemon zest.
Ivy @ Kopiaste To Greek Hospitality (Greece) - Kourabiedes With StakovoutyroLittle Greek shortbread cookies coated with powder sugar.
Ivy @ Kopiaste To Greek Hospitality (Greece) - Limoncello Kaltousnia or LychnarakiaA Cretan sweet cheese pie flavored with limoncello.
Arlette @ Phoenician Gourmet (Canada) - Flower CookiesFlower shaped Middle Eastern semolina cookies filled with pistacchio and drenched in syrup.
Yasmeen @ Health Nut (USA) - Dates Chocolate RugelachA Jewish treat that is always baked for New Year (Rosh Hashanah). Hers are filled with chocolate, dates, nuts and spices.
Yasmeen @ Health Nut (USA) - KunafaA Jordanian sweet pastry that is made by superposing layers of crispy kataifi and fresh cheese.
Sudha @ Malaysian Delicacies (Malaysia) - ChurrosSpanish doughnut fingers dusted with orange-flavored sugar.

ReplyDeleteLiebe Grüsse Robert
What a beautiful thought Rosa! Wonderful pastries, I love them all.
ReplyDeleteSorry , I missed this event, but I will absolutely be participating next time.

Great roundup! They look so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of Pastries for Peace and would have loved to participate. Unfortunately, as you see from my blog lately, I've been unable to bake or cook. Perhaps, the next time you host this event, I'll be able to join in on the fun. In the meantime, I think it's the quality of entries, not the amount that counts. You have a wonderful line up of Pastries for Peace here. ;-)
ReplyDeletePaz
J'ai besoin de te contacter, mes mails me reviennent, fais-moi signe. Bises.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea. Wish I had known. You need to do this again.
ReplyDeleteOh dear, I am so sorry Rosa. I thought about participating, somehow I completely forget about it. You have no idea how terrible I feel at the moment. I promise I'll remember next time. I am glad that you have quite a scrumptious looking entries.
ReplyDeletexoxo,

What enchanting pastries for such a lovely thought.
ReplyDeleteIf I wasn't so baking-challenged, I would "play" next time. It was probably just the timing, Rosa. I do hope you will do this again.
Thanks for sharing this delectable round-up. Now, where do I begin?
Rosa, I made some cookies but didn't have the camera to take pictures with. I also started another batch with a date filling but never managed to finish them as the last week before out trip was insane. I really, really, wanted to participate but time and no camera were my enemy.
ReplyDeleteAll the entries looked amazing though.
Happy Holidays!
Everything looks amazing Rosa. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
ReplyDeleteI was quite a bit on your site but somehow this event slipped my attention. I did not know it was on. Well, next time I guess. Love the recipes that got handed in though!
