Whenever my Granny would make an "accident" cake she and I would eat it. She said it was our "secret" that she made accidents on purpose because they were the best and she wanted to share the best with me. Every time I make an "accident" in the kitchen I remember my Granny. Thanks for sharing this video. Happy Easter!!
Jammie the cake look very teasty . Its perfect...don't mind at all. You both did your best!!! And that's always the right way. 😎 I notice that we have the same bin. The creme colour one. In your beautiful kitchen. Here in holland we coloured the eggs the same way. And we put little stickerts on them. With little easter bunny and 🐣🐇🐥 those. I don't no the name. The baby chiken. My Englisch is very poor ....so sorry. Do you in Engeland and in your country......that you hide the eggs in the garden? And the childeren must find them. So happy game. I have 2 sons.....18 years and 21. When the where little they love to look and find the eggs in the garden. We put the eggs in a basket. And we share them. I loved that time.!! My sons have tippecel names from the Netherlands. Maarten and Sander. Have a nice easter....hopefely the Werther is nice. We have very nice Werther all this week. Very sunny and blue sky.

Oh, I love the "accident cake"! I'm sure it was just as delicious as it would have been had it come out in one piece. Happy Easter to you both! God Bless.
I love your all's "accident cake"! It's wonderful and creates a fun and delicious memory! Here in the USA, we call that particular cake "Marble Cake" because swirling chocolate cake batter through vanilla batter creates a marble effect...my Mother began making them in the late 1960s. We also have the Easter traditions of coloring/decorating eggs, have both chocolate eggs and chocolate rabbits, plus our traditional Easter baskets for hunting/gathering the colored/decorated eggs after they are hidden...the children enjoy this activity. ...The both of you make very nice enjoyable videos...thank you both for your time and work. ...I'm watching this video now because we are approaching Easter 2022!
I could'nt wait to see how the brown colored eggs would come out....simply beautiful! By the way, chocolate easter bunnies and colored eggs are very much an American tradition, too. We probably got it from Germany!
Coloring eggs is a tradition here in the U.S. too. Paas color tablets in vinegar. The taste is what matters in accident cakes. We've all had them. Happy Easter!
@@KirstenJoerg I am 67 and those tablets of thin paper with transfer designs for the eggs were ubiquitous growing up in U.S.A. Love Easter eggs. Central European ones are incredibly elaborate. Enjoy your videos.
Bless you both for showing your cake, even though it didn't look perfect, as you say it tasted good. Have a lovely Easter and stay safe and well both of you xx
After you grease the pan, getting every indentation, then add some flour to coat every surface, turn pan upside down to get rid of excess flour, then add batter. That might help. 😏
Oh yes, that's what we did but since we've been baking with gluten free flour for more than 20 years, it just doesn't work every time, some cakes can be quite tricky with gluten free flour to be honest.
@@KirstenJoerg Ich liebe den Film auch sehr. Ich besitze alle Kochbücher von Julia Child auf englisch, und noch einige ihrer anderen. Nachkochen kann man davon allerdings nicht alles. Da sie ja mit ihrer Butter sehr verschwenderisch umgegangen ist. Sonst würde man sich nach kürzester Zeit mit einer mächtigen Gallenkolik im Krankenhaus wiederfinden.
I grew up in Berlin and loved the beautiful home painted Easter eggs .... and 'kaffee und kuchen'. Delicious cakes and tarts ...what joy to see your recreation of both. Taste and memories is more important than the look today ... Danke.👏
The cake would be great with custard 😋 or any left overs could be made into your Cabinet pudding. Baking can be hit and miss affair sometimes , it just happens. Don't be disheartened. Some of the most famous dishes happened from accidents, like Eton Mess and Tarte Tatin. Thanks for being honest about how baking can go wrong. Happy Easter 🐇
That's so true. We also have a cake in Germany called 'Flockentorte' and you scoop out the cake and just leave the base and mix the rest with some whipping cream. It tastes great. Happy Easter to you!
One of the delightful aspects of your videos is the sound of your voice, Kirsten. It doesn’t matter what you present, I love hearing you speak about it. Happy Easter!
You gave me the most wonderful chuckle with your Accident Cake!! It reminded me of those posts you see on fb where they first show the picture perfect Pinterest version, and then they show how it actually came out when they tried to create it at home. Thank you for sharing your reality. I'm still giggling. I really do love your videos. And....... I bet your cake tasted absolutely wonderful!! Happy Easter. He is risen, indeed! Bettina from Connecticut P.S. Coloring eggs is an Easter tradition here in New England, too.
Hahah I'm giggling too. And you know, it's actually such an easy cake to make. Making a Battenberg cake is a challenge and we managed that but not this one lol. Yes, it tastes really good which is the main thing. Happy Easter!
The gorgeous cake looked perfection in itself,the proof of the pudding is in the eating, I'm sure it tasted delicious no matter what!..(The mould was too heavy I think!)..thankyou for a most colourful & delightful Easter video!...stay safe both of you xx
Oh yes, the cake tastes wonderful. We've had this mould for many years and bake many cakes with it but this cake with the gluten free flour was so light weight, it just didn't work. Next time. Happy Easter and take care.
Hi Kirsten and Joerg, I love the way the eggs turned out. the brown color of the eggs created a base layer of color to lay the darker color dyes on top, creating colors resembling a jeweled effect. many great artists like Da Vinci painted brown underpaintings for their masterpieces. My ultimate favorite: the accident cake! priceless 🥰🤣
Once, for a baking project that was going to be judged, I baked a pound cake, forgetting to put the baking powder into the batter. The cake came out about an inch high. It tasted wonderful -- all the flavor concentrated in that 1 inch high cake. Needless to say, I had to make another one for my project. Don't apologize for using the gluten free flour. I have to be GF also. I've found (and I'm sure you have too) that you just have to search for recipes that work. And they're delicious! I enjoy your videos and look forward to new ones. Happy, Happy Easter! :-)
Love it! In my little family we began a tradition when my kids were little, of making an Easter Tree - getting a branch from outside and painting blown out eggs with watercolors or dying them, gluing a hanging string to the top hole and hanging the finished eggs, smallest on the top and largest on the bottom. Over the years we've continued, adding some bought beaded eggs, some European tiny painted wooden eggs, etc. When I visited my daughter and family one year in Cambridgeshire, I couldn't find white eggs to save my life, nor egg dying kits. But I dearly wanted my little granddaughter to experience the joys of Easter Egg Tree. So we blew out the insides of the brown eggs and covered them with bits of colored tissue paper and glue (papier mache' style), attached the hanging strings, hung them on a branch we cut from the garden and voila! An Easter Tree. Thank you so much for sharing your life and love with all of us! Happy Easter from California.
Hello, Kirsten & Joerg Once again, no matter how old your video is, it's still, the best! I live in the U.S. in California & our Easter traditions, are no different, really. We, love our chocolate rabbits & coloring Easter eggs, as well. The cake, even though didn't come out, 100% still looks, yummy!! I am excited, to try this recipe! Thank you, for sharing, the recipe! It is almost, February 2023 & Easter, is around the corner. I have insomnia & your videos, soothe me & help reduce, my anxiety. Sending, you both, hugs n kisses & good health, wishes!!
In the U.S. we have the food coloring tablets, and chocolate Easter bunnies. My favorite Easter treat was always the speckled chocolate mini eggs, they look like blue bird eggs. 😋
Your cake made me laugh. We've all had those kinds of mishaps. Yesterday I tried making a banana cream pie and had some problems. Looked terrible but the husband just loved it. And as you say, we don't waste food these days. All the best to you two and your viewers. Stay safe one and all.
As long as the cake tastes good that’s all that matters!! We all color eggs in the states. My son and daughter are 25 and 21 and we all still get together to color some eggs. Love your chocolate bunnies 🐰 I hope you and Joerg have a wonderful Easter 🐣 Be safe XX
Auch ich bin sicher, dass der *Unfall-Kuchen* lecker war. Hauptsache er war schön feucht und kein **Würgeengel**....hahaa. I hope, you both now this expression? Always so nice to see what and how you are doing something. Oh, coloured eggs are a tradition in France as well and....a special french tradition for easter are chocolate fishes. Yes, it's the truth and it was very new for us. Kirsten and Jörg, we are original from Germany as you are. So, we have to learn not only the language but a lot of other things as well. Stay save and take care !!!!
You made me laugh and it's so precious. I am prone to such "accidents" myself mainly when we have guests because i am so anxious to do well and in time. Here, in Alsace, we have the Easter lamb. Our nice neighbours brought us one fresh of the oven this morning. Thank you and have a Happy Easter !
We've painted eggs before, mostly as a childrens craft. My husband went to Marburg University (many yrs ago now). The 1st meal he made me on a date was something German. Must have been good. We got married, and been together 34yrs. Happy Easter to you both, and enjoy your bunnies.
I have had my share of baking accidents and mistakes. Things like that happen. I loved it when Joerg said food is scarce now and we are going to eat it. Bravo, both of you. The supermarket shelves are bare in a lot of places here in Philadelphia USA. The cake will taste just as yummy. So enjoy. I love the chocolate bunnies, they are adorable. It's hard to get eggs at all, so brown eggs are fine and the colors were very nice. I wish both of you a very Happy Easter and I look forward to your next video. 😊❤⚘
I thought your eggs turned out beautifully! My Dad’s grandparents immigrated from Germany in the early 1900’s. They settled in Washington state where I live now. 🥰 I always love when you share bits of German culture. Your cake looked just delightful!
Thanks so much, we love the colours too. And that's so interesting to hear Rachel, thanks so much for sharing. Wishing you and your family a Happy Easter.
Well done for showing us when it doesn’t go perfectly sometimes! As you say, it still tastes the same & it actually looked ok once you’d put the icing sugar on. Love the coloured eggs. Happy Easter to you & Joerg x
Looks like a typical day in my kitchen, haha! I'm sure it tasted wonderful and Happy Easter to you too! Me (in the kitchen): "How do you know when the baked spaghetti is ready? My family: "When the oven catches on fire."
I remember, as a child, blowing eggs to decorate. We made a mouse. We marbled some too. I think that we have had Bunnies for a while now. I loved that you invented a new cake! I think it was the cake tin, the shaped ones are very tricky. I have a spring-form one. Much easier. Frohe Ostern.
Oh yes, we did that too, happy memories. Oh we use the mould a lot for cakes, it's the gluten free flour, some cakes are so tricky with it but it's fine. Happy Easter.
MORE EGG DECORATION; HERE IS ONE for PLANT LOVERS: try this: a.) pick some leaves and spring flowers to would fit the size of an egg b.) find some tights, possibly used ones or torn ones that you wouldn´t want to wear anymore (to all the male readers: ...that you would NEVER wear😅). c.) prepare the colour according to Jörg´s and Kirsten`s suggestion d.) place leaves or blossoms on the egg and then put the eggs into the tights but make sure the leave/blossom stay in place during the procedure; then colour the eggs as suggested e.) enjoy the result- you will see the shape of the plant on the shell. Happy Easter- frohe Ostern!
@@KirstenJoerg Frohe Ostern für Euch zwei- musste sehr lachen angesichts des Schoko-Hasens, ja, der ist seit KIndertagen ein Muss! Ihr habt alles ganz toll renoviert. Seit meiner Zeit in GB habe ich nie wieder weiße Raufaser an der Wand gehabt.
@@julimata1912 I thought as much, I mean I was quite sure that people in England colour their eggs the same way. Happy Easter from Germany, let´s all pray that Corona will be over and done with soon.
My Greek relatives also paint eggs and say Easter wouldn't be right without them. When they are coloured and dry they rub a bit of olive oil over the shells to make them shine. They like the red ones best too 😊🐣🐰
That's exactly how we made colored eggs here in Kentucky, USA growing up. My father's family is from Germany. My grandmother remembered her mother speaking German when she was a little girl. I'm guessing the cake tasted wonderful! If you bake it again, maybe try dusting the pan with you gluten free flour after the grease/butter. That's what Mom did on all her cakes and I do too. I'm glad to see you both doing well! Take care and Happy Easter!
Thanks so much Laura! Oh yes, we actually dusted the mould with some almond flour too but the gluten free flour is to blame, the cake is super leight weight with this kind of flour but it tastes great. Happy Easter to you.
Oh Kirsten, don't be sad that the cake didn't look the way you wanted! The difference is that it was made by you and Joerg with a lot of love !!! I'll try to do it and then tell you the result! Happy Easter to you, stay well and at home! In fact, this crumbled cake is delicious with ice cream too!
I have been cooking & baking for almost 50 years & sometimes things just don’t come out like they are supposed to. That’s life! If it tastes good who cares what it looks like! Have a wonderful Easter🙂❤️🙏🏻
Decorating eggs used to done when I was young, it just seems to be a tradition that has died out, though it is probably carried on it lots of areas in the UK. Even when we couldn't get colouring as you can today, you would use onion skins and tea on white eggs overlapping for deeper shades and some parts marked off, like say, tie dyeing. Rabbits and eggs as Easter tradition dates back to the Vernal Equinox celebrations, pre-Christmas times. Pencils and paints were used as well on the eggs and the families names. There is an old folk song about Pace- Egging. Did you butter the bundt mould well? Maybe that contributed to the accident. Still the proof of the pudding is in the eating! I have eaten gorgeous looking desserts and paid a lot of money for them, and they've been a great disappointment. In that respect yours wins the day! XXX
Yes, we did crease the mould and also used almond flour, we use the mould so often for cakes, sadly it's the gluten free flour, doesn't always work. But the cake tastes great.
good morning to you both.....thank you for letting us visit you during this time, when we all need more smiles and laughter.....take good care, be well, keep in touch with all of us.....and keep spreading the love of all things creative, colorful, whimsical, with your love for history as well.....thank you both.....
I found it so interesting to learn that dyeing eggs and chocolate bunnies are a big tradition in Germany. It is also a tradition here in the United States to dye eggs and give chocolate bunnies on Easter.
The eyes are gorgeous.....Rich jewel tones. I am glad you show your not so perfect cakes and such. Your show is real and not fake. I like that. We all don't have to be perfect and cakes don't have to be perfect to taste good. Once you cut into the cake it is no longer pristine anyway.
When I have had these accidents it was because my pan was so new. New ones you do have to grease & flour (or cocoa), very well. If you do not want all that heavy grease & flour taste on your expensive cake, make a cheap cake mix a few times to “season the pan”. Never put in dishwasher or use a lot of soap. If possible, no soap, just hot water & dry. It is such a beautiful cake pan mold, that is why he wanted it. My grandmother taught me this, she was born in 1912 and lived to 92 years old. She called it seasoning it. Love y’all, keep up the great team work!
Here in the US, we also dye eggs and sometimes we decorate the boiled eggs with a white wax crayon before dipping them into the color. The white crayon acts to resist the paint color, so you will have surprises reveal themselves like little flowers or dots or lines circling the eggs after they are removed from their dye bath. After our Easter egg hunt, mom would open the eggs carefully and make deviled eggs with them to go with our Easter dinner. Yum! Other Easter treats besides chocolate bunnies are Cadbury chocolate eggs or jelly beans in little plastic eggs that pop open in the center. We usually had ham for our dinner, but other families I know of had lamb. We would also have cake and ice cream or milk for dessert. What a sugar RUSH! :)
Happy Easter!, My Grandchildren painted wooden eggs this year. They like to hide them outside. This is the first year since 1971 that my children didn’t paint real eggs. We needed to save them for eating and not hiding. They take turns hiding for each other and the eggs are not eaten afterwards. Or maybe the dog can have them with their food.
Nothing wrong with that cake! I make custard or chocolate sauce to pour over my cake disasters to turn them into lovely pudding! When we spent Easter in Germany with our friends, we took Easter eggs for them and they gave us Lindt bunnies! Have a lovely Easter both of you.
Happy coming Easter, Kirsten and Joerg! Христос Воскресе! - Christ is risen! Growing up in former Soviet Union, we used red onions peels to color the eggs. They would turn pretty maroon color. Loved your video and an "Accident cake".
It is perfectly fine to show us your “accident cake”. It is the process that is more important. Your vlog was very heart warming. We enjoying watching both of you making coloured eggs and cake together. Life is not perfect. We also made many “accident cakes” !
You guys are so cute! I loved when you licked the bowl! That is the best part of baking in my opinion. I laughed so hard when your husband said, "Well these things happen!" That's so true in life! Loved this video!
Just a baking tip. When making a marble cake, put blobs of white batter next to blobs of chocolate batter. After it’s all in the pan swirl it together gently with a dinner knife. Will turn out much better than with a fork. Also spray your pan generously with baking spray. Get it in every little nook & crannie. Will help it release from the pan much better than butter.
Coloring eggs for Easter is a huge tradition here in the US. Almost everyone does it. When I was a kid (I’m 57) we used the tablets. The cake looked delicious even in its rustic state. Happy Easter!
Your "accident" cake was the bright spot of my day! Who knows, scooping cake from the pan could become the next food trend! I was surprised at how well the colors worked on the brown eggs. Coloring eggs for Easter is widespread in the U.S. so I wasn't aware that it was a German tradition. But since I am part German, Welsh and Slovak, it was already a family tradition when I was growing up.
I am 61, Kirsten. You took me back to my childhood. We used to learn to colour eggs for Easter in the primary school. If I remember correctly, we used to use fabric colouring in small sachets. It was very messy. Things have changed. It's not done any more. No more Easter. Thank you for always bringing a smile on my face. 😘 Happy Easter.
I didn't realize my ancestors brought that tradition over with them. I'm 61 and my mom made our colored eggs just like this, this comp..Paas..put out the tablets in a kit. We had a ceramic biz for a some yrs, mom would color ceramic eggs using colored oils in water, they came out looking tie-dyed. The cake still looks tasty, I'm sure you were disappointed to see it, but it happens, and we don't mind, as they say...that's life. Hope you had a nice day.
That was hilarious. I was sorting through our loft yesterday because we still need to properly unpack after moving into this house and I found the Bundt tin that my husband bought when we were on our honeymoon. When I saw it I thought how sad that we have never used it but now I am definitely making an accident cake. When I was younger we always dyed our eggs. We used onion skins to make the eggs brown! Sometimes we dripped candle wax onto them before we dyed them with food colouring then washed it off with hot water after to make nice patterns. I think I’ll do it next year. My father has hens so we use whatever colour they lay. Our duck lays very light eggs and geese lay white eggs too if you struggle with hen eggs again. Thanks as always for sharing your adventure. It’s great that you don’t take yourselves too seriously.
My husband and I so look forward to your videos. We are having our morning tea and both laughed with tears in our eyes over your "accident" cake. Thank you for keeping it "real" and sharing glimpses of your life. Your words and presentation are respectful and heartwarming and always so positive. Happy Easter may you be safe and well during these uncertain days. Our Best ~
Accidents are usually the tastiest . The one & only time I decided to make a two layer cake & frost it . The top cake wouldn't stay on it kept sliding off , it was hilarious , I learned don't frost a two layer cake when its HOT & HUMID OUT LOL . The cake was delicious ! Love watching ,you two are so sweet!
The Easter eggs are gorgeous! I was impressed that you got the colors to look as good as they did, using the brown eggs. Very rich deep colors. It's so interesting that huge chocolate eggs are common in England, but not in Germany. We lived in Germany for a couple of years and I have fond memories of so many lovely holiday traditions there. As for the cake- Those molds are so tricky! You just never know what you'll get. But I loved "being there" to witness the whole process. I am so glad you and Joerg are still making videos. You bring a lot of happiness to people, and we really need it now.
I forgot to mention that, no matter how the cake turned out, making the best of it and showing it to us, was brave. Showing your imperfections, is a sign of great integrity. Jane Lewis Gendreau, Northern Arizona, USA.
I am catching up on your videos so this comment is VERY late. I am in America and we always colored eggs for Easter with packaged tablets as well. And we have chocolate bunnies for our Easter baskets too. I never heard of chocolate eggs until I married my English husband. Now we do both. Love that you showed your accident cake. We've all had culinary accidents. When I make a bundt cake, I learned to let it cool only 10 to 15 minutes, turn it out and let it cool the rest of the way. Works like a charm, though I don't know if you will even see this comment! I love watching you two!
It was a joy watching you two dye your eggs! It has always been a tradition passed down in our German heritage to make an Easter egg candy plate! We have baked many Bundt cakes over the years! When they get sticky we just place pieces in a bowl and put cream over the top! Delicious!! Have a fabulous Easter!🌷🐥🐣🐇😘
👋 hey pretty couple happy Easter 🐣🐇🐰....is very beautiful and tradition in America union too for children nicely good time but now is so hard moments for celebrate in big only inside the house, anyway is good continue the tradition.👍🥰🐣🐇
I love that you showed us your "accident cake"! Whenever I bake a broken cake, I just turn it into Bowl Cake! Broken Cake + whipped cream + any canned pie filling that goes with the flavour of your cake, all gently mixed together in a big bowl. Kid & Husband approved! We also colour eggs at Easter here in Canada. I love the jewel tones you got by using brown eggs! Very pretty! Happy Easter!
My mother's side all came to the US in the 1800s from Prussia and other states in what is now the Country of Germany. So I love learning about all things Germanic - thank you VERY much for sharing some German Easter traditions.
Another SUCCESS! I’m going to try this cake it looks delicious. If it becomes an Accident cake my grown sons will not even care! I think I have pictures of some of their lopsided birthday cakes and nobody said a thing. Lol they were lucky I made them cakes. I’m not really good at baking or cooking but I love to be in the kitchen.
Kirsten: as Bob Ross used to say : we don't make mistakes, just happy little accidents ! 🐰🐇 🥚!

After you grease the pan, getting every indentation, then add some flour to coat every surface, turn pan upside down to get rid of excess flour, then add batter. That might help. 😏

Thanks so much and Happy Easter.
Kirsten's voice is truly magical!
Hi from Moscow! I like your home - very beautiful colors. You are very interesting couple.❤💙💚
Thanks so much Helen!
I love the accident cake ! If it was perfect it would not be relatable, and lets face it , we all have accidents 😅😅♥️♥️ love you !
Thanks so much and yes, we so agree!
You gave me the most wonderful chuckle with your Accident Cake!! It reminded me of those posts you see on fb where they first show the picture perfect Pinterest version, and then they show how it actually came out when they tried to create it at home. Thank you for sharing your reality. I'm still giggling.
I really do love your videos. And.......
I bet your cake tasted absolutely wonderful!! Happy Easter.
He is risen, indeed!
Bettina from Connecticut
P.S. Coloring eggs is an Easter tradition here in New England, too.
Hahah I'm giggling too. And you know, it's actually such an easy cake to make. Making a Battenberg cake is a challenge and we managed that but not this one lol. Yes, it tastes really good which is the main thing. Happy Easter!
We need more German recipes 😍😍 I will definitely try the cake 😋
And to all the beautiful people who commented blessings to you all lovely folks.
The gorgeous cake looked perfection in itself,the proof of the pudding is in the eating, I'm sure it tasted delicious no matter what!..(The mould was too heavy I think!)..thankyou for a most colourful & delightful Easter video!...stay safe both of you xx
Oh yes, the cake tastes wonderful. We've had this mould for many years and bake many cakes with it but this cake with the gluten free flour was so light weight, it just didn't work. Next time. Happy Easter and take care.
Hi Kirsten and Joerg,
I love the way the eggs turned out. the brown color of the eggs created a base layer of color to lay the darker color dyes on top, creating colors resembling a jeweled effect. many great artists like Da Vinci painted brown underpaintings for their masterpieces. My ultimate favorite: the accident cake! priceless 🥰🤣
Once, for a baking project that was going to be judged, I baked a pound cake, forgetting to put the baking powder into the batter. The cake came out about an inch high. It tasted wonderful -- all the flavor concentrated in that 1 inch high cake. Needless to say, I had to make another one for my project. Don't apologize for using the gluten free flour. I have to be GF also. I've found (and I'm sure you have too) that you just have to search for recipes that work. And they're delicious! I enjoy your videos and look forward to new ones. Happy, Happy Easter! :-)
Oh yes, absolutely! Usually the cake works with gluten free flour but not yesterday lol, it's fine though, it tastes great. Happy Easter.
Love it! In my little family we began a tradition when my kids were little, of making an Easter Tree - getting a branch from outside and painting blown out eggs with watercolors or dying them, gluing a hanging string to the top hole and hanging the finished eggs, smallest on the top and largest on the bottom. Over the years we've continued, adding some bought beaded eggs, some European tiny painted wooden eggs, etc. When I visited my daughter and family one year in Cambridgeshire, I couldn't find white eggs to save my life, nor egg dying kits. But I dearly wanted my little granddaughter to experience the joys of Easter Egg Tree. So we blew out the insides of the brown eggs and covered them with bits of colored tissue paper and glue (papier mache' style), attached the hanging strings, hung them on a branch we cut from the garden and voila! An Easter Tree. Thank you so much for sharing your life and love with all of us! Happy Easter from California.
Oh yes, we do that too, sadly it didn't work out for us this year but hopefully next year. Have a Happy Easter.
Kirsten it still looks good to me yum yum 🏵
It's really good just not pretty lol.
Hello, Kirsten & Joerg
Once again, no matter how old your video is, it's still, the best! I live in the U.S. in California & our Easter traditions, are no different, really. We, love our chocolate rabbits & coloring Easter eggs, as well. The cake, even though didn't come out, 100% still looks, yummy!! I am excited, to try this recipe! Thank you, for sharing, the recipe! It is almost, February 2023 & Easter, is around the corner. I have insomnia & your videos, soothe me & help reduce, my anxiety. Sending, you both, hugs n kisses & good health, wishes!!
Happy Easter from Oma in Ohio. Funny...I've also made that accident cake.
Hahah great, Happy Easter to you!
Sharing mistakes /accidents is really important.
I like honesty.. it's real life..for all of us.
I'm sure it tasted fantastic.
In the U.S. we have the food coloring tablets, and chocolate Easter bunnies. My favorite Easter treat was always the speckled chocolate mini eggs, they look like blue bird eggs. 😋
Oh yes, love those little eggs as well. Happy Easter Jennifer.
Happy Easter to you and Joerg, may your day be joyfully. 💕
Happy Easter to you and Jeorge!
I’m from USA, I grew up dyeing egg every Easter. Part of our Easter tradition.
Yes we share the same tradition.
I am from the UK and we used to decorate hard boiled eggs at easter but it's not done so much now
Yes, it's still very big in Germany and we love doing it.
I am spanish and I love your videos
Thanks so much!
Oh, no. The cake! I am sure it tastes great all the same. Love from Russia. 💋
Hahah I know, such a mess but yes, it tastes great, thank God.
@@KirstenJoerg happy to hear that! Happy Easter! ❤️
Your cake made me laugh. We've all had those kinds of mishaps. Yesterday I tried making a banana cream pie and had some problems. Looked terrible but the husband just loved it. And as you say, we don't waste food these days. All the best to you two and your viewers. Stay safe one and all.
Yes! Oh yes, I bet your banana cream pie was so nice, it sounds delicious. Stay say and have a Happy Easter.
As long as the cake tastes good that’s all that matters!! We all color eggs in the states. My son and daughter are 25 and 21 and we all still get together to color some eggs. Love your chocolate bunnies 🐰 I hope you and Joerg have a wonderful Easter 🐣 Be safe XX
Thanks so much Roseann! Yes, the cake tastes so nice. Happy Easter and take care.
Auch ich bin sicher, dass der *Unfall-Kuchen* lecker war. Hauptsache er war schön feucht und kein **Würgeengel**....hahaa. I hope, you both now this expression? Always so nice to see what and how you are doing something. Oh, coloured eggs are a tradition in France as well and....a special french tradition for easter are chocolate fishes. Yes, it's the truth and it was very new for us. Kirsten and Jörg, we are original from Germany as you are. So, we have to learn not only the language but a lot of other things as well. Stay save and take care !!!!
You made me laugh and it's so precious. I am prone to such "accidents" myself mainly when we have guests because i am so anxious to do well and in time. Here, in Alsace, we have the Easter lamb. Our nice neighbours brought us one fresh of the oven this morning. Thank you and have a Happy Easter !
Thanks so much Miren! Have a lovely Easter.
As Bob Ross said, "we don't make mistakes we have happy accidents." 😄👍 Love all your videos!!
Thanks so much!
Happy Easter! God Bless you all on this Holy of Holiest Days! He is Risen!!
Thanks so much and Happy Easter to you.
I use to tell my daughters, cooking is a science, sometimes it comes out one way, sometimes perfect... it's all good. Sweetdreams😴😴
Hahah it is!
We've painted eggs before, mostly as a childrens craft. My husband went to Marburg University (many yrs ago now). The 1st meal he made me on a date was something German. Must have been good. We got married, and been together 34yrs. Happy Easter to you both, and enjoy your bunnies.
Hahah that's wonderful! Have a happy Easter and thank you.
Вы такая хорошая пара , удачи вам и всего доброго!
I have had my share of baking accidents and mistakes. Things like that happen. I loved it when Joerg said food is scarce now and we are going to eat it. Bravo, both of you. The supermarket shelves are bare in a lot of places here in Philadelphia USA. The cake will taste just as yummy. So enjoy. I love the chocolate bunnies, they are adorable. It's hard to get eggs at all, so brown eggs are fine and the colors were very nice. I wish both of you a very Happy Easter and I look forward to your next video. 😊❤⚘
Yes and it's absolutely okay. The cake tastes great nonetheless. Have a Happy Easter too.
I thought your eggs turned out beautifully! My Dad’s grandparents immigrated from Germany in the early 1900’s. They settled in Washington state where I live now. 🥰 I always love when you share bits of German culture. Your cake looked just delightful!
Thanks so much, we love the colours too. And that's so interesting to hear Rachel, thanks so much for sharing. Wishing you and your family a Happy Easter.
Well done for showing us when it doesn’t go perfectly sometimes! As you say, it still tastes the same & it actually looked ok once you’d put the icing sugar on. Love the coloured eggs. Happy Easter to you & Joerg x
Thanks so much Margaret! Happy Easter to you too.
Looks like a typical day in my kitchen, haha! I'm sure it tasted wonderful and Happy Easter to you too!
Me (in the kitchen): "How do you know when the baked spaghetti is ready?
My family: "When the oven catches on fire."
Hahah! Yes, it tastes great - Happy Easter to you as well.
Marmorkuchen is marble cake in England. I don't make mine in a bundt tin just as a tray bake.
Thank you for being "real" people. You will encourage others to "give it a try".
I remember, as a child, blowing eggs to decorate. We made a mouse. We marbled some too. I think that we have had Bunnies for a while now. I loved that you invented a new cake! I think it was the cake tin, the shaped ones are very tricky. I have a spring-form one. Much easier. Frohe Ostern.
Oh yes, we did that too, happy memories. Oh we use the mould a lot for cakes, it's the gluten free flour, some cakes are so tricky with it but it's fine. Happy Easter.
A large scoop of ice cream would be a happy addition to gather up the crumbs....yum!
MORE EGG DECORATION; HERE IS ONE for PLANT LOVERS: try this: a.) pick some leaves and spring flowers to would fit the size of an egg b.) find some tights, possibly used ones or torn ones that you wouldn´t want to wear anymore (to all the male readers: ...that you would NEVER wear😅). c.) prepare the colour according to Jörg´s and Kirsten`s suggestion d.) place leaves or blossoms on the egg and then put the eggs into the tights but make sure the leave/blossom stay in place during the procedure; then colour the eggs as suggested e.) enjoy the result- you will see the shape of the plant on the shell. Happy Easter- frohe Ostern!
Wonderful, thank you!
That's the way I've been doing it for years now and there's no Easter without them :)🐰
@@KirstenJoerg Frohe Ostern für Euch zwei- musste sehr lachen angesichts des Schoko-Hasens, ja, der ist seit KIndertagen ein Muss! Ihr habt alles ganz toll renoviert. Seit meiner Zeit in GB habe ich nie wieder weiße Raufaser an der Wand gehabt.
@@julimata1912 I thought as much, I mean I was quite sure that people in England colour their eggs the same way. Happy Easter from Germany, let´s all pray that Corona will be over and done with soon.
My Greek relatives also paint eggs and say Easter wouldn't be right without them. When they are coloured and dry they rub a bit of olive oil over the shells to make them shine. They like the red ones best too 😊🐣🐰
Oh yes, we sometimes rub them as well to make them more shiny. Happy Easter.
The cake is perfect!. These things happen and the fact you shared is amazing. Happy Eater!. Lets eat cake shall we?
Thanks so much Michelle, it tastes great despite the fact that it doesn't look pretty hahah. Happy Easter to you.
Looking forward to having cake again. I love cake.
Eat at night with a lit candle and tea, lovely napkins, fine dishes and it will be spectacular! A true joy to see you two. D.
Wonderful idea, thank you!
That's exactly how we made colored eggs here in Kentucky, USA growing up. My father's family is from Germany. My grandmother remembered her mother speaking German when she was a little girl. I'm guessing the cake tasted wonderful! If you bake it again, maybe try dusting the pan with you gluten free flour after the grease/butter. That's what Mom did on all her cakes and I do too. I'm glad to see you both doing well! Take care and Happy Easter!
Thanks so much Laura! Oh yes, we actually dusted the mould with some almond flour too but the gluten free flour is to blame, the cake is super leight weight with this kind of flour but it tastes great. Happy Easter to you.
Oh Kirsten, don't be sad that the cake didn't look the way you wanted! The difference is that it was made by you and Joerg with a lot of love !!! I'll try to do it and then tell you the result! Happy Easter to you, stay well and at home! In fact, this crumbled cake is delicious with ice cream too!
It's all good, the cake tastes really nice and it will work beautifully with regular flour. Happy Easter to you too.
I enjoyed your Accident Cake virtually! Happy Easter!!
Thanks so much and happy Easter to you too.
I have been cooking & baking for almost 50 years & sometimes things just don’t come out like they are supposed to. That’s life! If it tastes good who cares what it looks like! Have a wonderful Easter🙂❤️🙏🏻
Exactly and it's more than okay and the cake tastes great. Happy Easter to you too.
Hello, love that you show real life. I hope you have a wonderful Easter. Thanks for the uplifting video 😊
Thanks so much!
My family would absolutely LOVE the fact that the cake came apart.... we would enjoy it no matter what !! LOL
Decorating eggs used to done when I was young, it just seems to be a tradition that has died out, though it is probably carried on it lots of areas in the UK. Even when we couldn't get colouring as you can today, you would use onion skins and tea on white eggs overlapping for deeper shades and some parts marked off, like say, tie dyeing. Rabbits and eggs as Easter tradition dates back to the Vernal Equinox celebrations, pre-Christmas times. Pencils and paints were used as well on the eggs and the families names. There is an old folk song about Pace- Egging.
Did you butter the bundt mould well? Maybe that contributed to the accident. Still the proof of the pudding is in the eating! I have eaten gorgeous looking desserts and paid a lot of money for them, and they've been a great disappointment. In that respect yours wins the day! XXX
Yes, we did crease the mould and also used almond flour, we use the mould so often for cakes, sadly it's the gluten free flour, doesn't always work. But the cake tastes great.
good morning to you both.....thank you for letting us visit you during this time, when we all need more smiles and laughter.....take good care, be well, keep in touch with all of us.....and keep spreading the love of all things creative, colorful, whimsical, with your love for history as well.....thank you both.....
Thanks so much Regina!
The egg colours are so nice. Your hair still looks so good, mines a mess without access to hairdressers,Happy Easter to you both.
Thanks so much Sinead and Happy Easter.
I found it so interesting to learn that dyeing eggs and chocolate bunnies are a big tradition in Germany. It is also a tradition here in the United States to dye eggs and give chocolate bunnies on Easter.
Curious that we have the same tradition of painting hard-boiled eggs in Russia, considering it purely Russian haha
That's wonderful to hear!
Вероника Veronica We have it too in Switzerland. Also with beautiful patterns!
This is a joy to hear! 🌷🐣🌷
Same in the US. Who knew..
We do it in Poland as well. I live in USA since 1996 but I did that with my children too. Happy Easter to all!
The eyes are gorgeous.....Rich jewel tones. I am glad you show your not so perfect cakes and such. Your show is real and not fake. I like that. We all don't have to be perfect and cakes don't have to be perfect to taste good. Once you cut into the cake it is no longer pristine anyway.
I remember as a child my father dying eggs for my easter, he was from Poland. I'm now 68 and this took me right back to then. Thank you so much.
When I have had these accidents it was because my pan was so new. New ones you do have to grease & flour (or cocoa), very well. If you do not want all that heavy grease & flour taste on your expensive cake, make a cheap cake mix a few times to “season the pan”. Never put in dishwasher or use a lot of soap. If possible, no soap, just hot water & dry. It is such a beautiful cake pan mold, that is why he wanted it. My grandmother taught me this, she was born in 1912 and lived to 92 years old. She called it seasoning it. Love y’all, keep up the great team work!
Here in the US, we also dye eggs and sometimes we decorate the boiled eggs with a white wax crayon before dipping them into the color. The white crayon acts to resist the paint color, so you will have surprises reveal themselves like little flowers or dots or lines circling the eggs after they are removed from their dye bath. After our Easter egg hunt, mom would open the eggs carefully and make deviled eggs with them to go with our Easter dinner. Yum! Other Easter treats besides chocolate bunnies are Cadbury chocolate eggs or jelly beans in little plastic eggs that pop open in the center. We usually had ham for our dinner, but other families I know of had lamb. We would also have cake and ice cream or milk for dessert. What a sugar RUSH! :)
Happy Easter!, My Grandchildren painted wooden eggs this year. They like to hide them outside. This is the first year since 1971 that my children didn’t paint real eggs. We needed to save them for eating and not hiding. They take turns hiding for each other and the eggs are not eaten afterwards. Or maybe the dog can have them with their food.
Thank you and happy Easter to you as well.
My family (in south-west London) used to paint eggs at Easter too.I think it was quite normal at the time.
That's lovely!
Nothing wrong with that cake! I make custard or chocolate sauce to pour over my cake disasters to turn them into lovely pudding! When we spent Easter in Germany with our friends, we took Easter eggs for them and they gave us Lindt bunnies! Have a lovely Easter both of you.
Thanks so much! It tastes great, we put some melted dark and white chocolate over it later. Have a Happy Easter.
Happy coming Easter, Kirsten and Joerg! Христос Воскресе! - Christ is risen! Growing up in former Soviet Union, we used red onions peels to color the eggs. They would turn pretty maroon color. Loved your video and an "Accident cake".
Happy Easter to you too. Oh yes, my Mom uses red onion peel as well.
It is perfectly fine to show us your “accident cake”. It is the process that is more important. Your vlog was very heart warming. We enjoying watching both of you making coloured eggs and cake together. Life is not perfect. We also made many “accident cakes” !
Thanks so much!
You guys are so cute! I loved when you licked the bowl! That is the best part of baking in my opinion. I laughed so hard when your husband said, "Well these things happen!" That's so true in life! Loved this video!
Thanks so much! Oh yes, I've been doing that since I was a child, can't help it. Happy Easter to you.
Just a baking tip. When making a marble cake, put blobs of white batter next to blobs of chocolate batter. After it’s all in the pan swirl it together gently with a dinner knife. Will turn out much better than with a fork. Also spray your pan generously with baking spray. Get it in every little nook & crannie. Will help it release from the pan much better than butter.
Yes, thank you. Just followed the recipe and sadly it was the gluten free flour but it's fine, it tastes good anyway.
Coloring eggs for Easter is a huge tradition here in the US. Almost everyone does it. When I was a kid (I’m 57) we used the tablets. The cake looked delicious even in its rustic state. Happy Easter!
Yes, it's big in the US as well. Sadly we can't get tablets here as it's just not that common to colour eggs in the UK. Happy Easter to you.
Your "accident" cake was the bright spot of my day! Who knows, scooping cake from the pan could become the next food trend! I was surprised at how well the colors worked on the brown eggs. Coloring eggs for Easter is widespread in the U.S. so I wasn't aware that it was a German tradition. But since I am part German, Welsh and Slovak, it was already a family tradition when I was growing up.
Hahah love the idea! Yes, I think we are quite the same with our Easter traditions. Have a Happy Easter.
I am 61, Kirsten. You took me back to my childhood. We used to learn to colour eggs for Easter in the primary school. If I remember correctly, we used to use fabric colouring in small sachets. It was very messy. Things have changed. It's not done any more. No more Easter. Thank you for always bringing a smile on my face. 😘
Happy Easter.
Happy Easter to you too.
I am Pennsylvania Dutch so this is very familiar to me.
I didn't realize my ancestors brought that tradition over with them. I'm 61 and my mom made our colored eggs just like this, this comp..Paas..put out the tablets in a kit. We had a ceramic biz for a some yrs, mom would color ceramic eggs using colored oils in water, they came out looking tie-dyed. The cake still looks tasty, I'm sure you were disappointed to see it, but it happens, and we don't mind, as they say...that's life. Hope you had a nice day.
That was hilarious. I was sorting through our loft yesterday because we still need to properly unpack after moving into this house and I found the Bundt tin that my husband bought when we were on our honeymoon. When I saw it I thought how sad that we have never used it but now I am definitely making an accident cake. When I was younger we always dyed our eggs. We used onion skins to make the eggs brown! Sometimes we dripped candle wax onto them before we dyed them with food colouring then washed it off with hot water after to make nice patterns. I think I’ll do it next year. My father has hens so we use whatever colour they lay. Our duck lays very light eggs and geese lay white eggs too if you struggle with hen eggs again. Thanks as always for sharing your adventure. It’s great that you don’t take yourselves too seriously.
Thank you for being human. I love when people are being themselves. I love watching ya'll. I love your cake lol. Well done.
Thanks so much!
My husband and I so look forward to your videos. We are having our morning tea and both laughed with tears in our eyes over your "accident" cake. Thank you for keeping it "real" and sharing glimpses of your life. Your words and presentation are respectful and heartwarming and always so positive. Happy Easter may you be safe and well during these uncertain days. Our Best ~
Hahah that makes us happy, you just need a good laugh once in a while. Happy Easter and stay well.
Accidents are usually the tastiest . The one & only time I decided to make a two layer cake & frost it . The top cake wouldn't stay on it kept sliding off , it was hilarious , I learned don't frost a two layer cake when its HOT & HUMID OUT LOL . The cake was delicious ! Love watching ,you two are so sweet!
Hahah and they stay with you so you always have something to talk about. Yes, the cake tastes great. Happy Easter!
You two are the best! Good sense of humor!
The Easter eggs are gorgeous! I was impressed that you got the colors to look as good as they did, using the brown eggs. Very rich deep colors. It's so interesting that huge chocolate eggs are common in England, but not in Germany. We lived in Germany for a couple of years and I have fond memories of so many lovely holiday traditions there. As for the cake- Those molds are so tricky! You just never know what you'll get. But I loved "being there" to witness the whole process. I am so glad you and Joerg are still making videos. You bring a lot of happiness to people, and we really need it now.
I forgot to mention that, no matter how the cake turned out, making the best of it and showing it to us, was brave. Showing your imperfections, is a sign of great integrity. Jane Lewis Gendreau, Northern Arizona, USA.
Thanks so much Jane!
❤️❤️🐰🐰 Love you guys!!
I am catching up on your videos so this comment is VERY late. I am in America and we always colored eggs for Easter with packaged tablets as well. And we have chocolate bunnies for our Easter baskets too. I never heard of chocolate eggs until I married my English husband. Now we do both. Love that you showed your accident cake. We've all had culinary accidents. When I make a bundt cake, I learned to let it cool only 10 to 15 minutes, turn it out and let it cool the rest of the way. Works like a charm, though I don't know if you will even see this comment! I love watching you two!
It was a joy watching you two dye your eggs! It has always been a tradition passed down in our German heritage to make an Easter egg candy plate! We have baked many Bundt cakes over the years! When they get sticky we just place pieces in a bowl and put cream over the top! Delicious!! Have a fabulous Easter!🌷🐥🐣🐇😘
Thanks so much! Oh that sounds yummy. We had some of the cake yesterday and it tastes really lovely. Happy Easter to you too.
Sweet memories of past Easters smilexo
👋 hey pretty couple happy Easter 🐣🐇🐰....is very beautiful and tradition in America union too for children nicely good time but now is so hard moments for celebrate in big only inside the house, anyway is good continue the tradition.👍🥰🐣🐇
Yes! Same here, we would love to be with our family in Germany. Happy Easter.
I love that you showed us your "accident cake"! Whenever I bake a broken cake, I just turn it into Bowl Cake! Broken Cake + whipped cream + any canned pie filling that goes with the flavour of your cake, all gently mixed together in a big bowl. Kid & Husband approved! We also colour eggs at Easter here in Canada. I love the jewel tones you got by using brown eggs! Very pretty! Happy Easter!
That's a wonderful idea! This cake tastes really nice so it's great. Happy Easter to you and your family.
We do this in the US and use white eggs. Yours are lovely however. Very festive.
My mother's side all came to the US in the 1800s from Prussia and other states in what is now the Country of Germany. So I love learning about all things Germanic - thank you VERY much for sharing some German Easter traditions.
Another SUCCESS! I’m going to try this cake it looks delicious. If it becomes an Accident cake my grown sons will not even care! I think I have pictures of some of their lopsided birthday cakes and nobody said a thing. Lol they were lucky I made them cakes. I’m not really good at baking or cooking but I love to be in the kitchen.
This is why I love your videos. Thank you for being real people. This has happened to me and it's sad,but still tastes good.
Thanks so much!
In the US people color eggs every year. I use little tablets in vinegar for the coloring. We have chocolate Easter bunnies everywhere.
Yes!
