How am I connected to the island of Rügen?
It all began in late summer 2023. I received a phone call, and on the other end was Nils Peters from Peters Bakery & Patisserie in Sassnitz.
He had read an article about me and my work as a pastry consultant in the Allgemeine Bäcker Zeitung and wanted to invite me to the island and to his business because he was looking for exactly someone like me.
Little did I know how much that phone call would change my life – especially since I first had to Google Sassnitz to find out just how far away it was from Offenburg.
Nevertheless, just a few weeks later, I found myself on a long train journey heading north. And the rest, as they say, is history.
Three years later, we are still working closely together. A lot has changed during this time. My consulting services have been – and continue to be – adapted to the evolving needs of the business and now cover the following areas:
- Product development
- Staff training
- Production support
The Patisserie and Bakery Peters
A family-run business in its second generation, with 13 branches across the island.

Special projects
Little Drum Cakes
For the drumming concert in the bakery, we created this little drum cake, made with a spelt shortcrust base, cheesecake, a sea buckthorn glaze and white chocolate decorations.
Sail GP
For the press meeting at the harbour station, we created this themed cake for the German team.
Winter Solstice Mini Cake
The winter solstice is a celebration marking the turning point when the days gradually start getting longer again. To celebrate, we created this delicious little cake featuring a light and airy vanilla and white chocolate mousse, paired with an aromatic cocoa sponge infused with candied orange peel and Grand Marnier.
