Raven Cakes Bakery Authentic German baking made simple. Step-by-step videos and recipes. Learn, bake, enjoy. 🍰🇩🇪 Hi, I’m Davia! I grew up in Germany and moved to the U.S.

at 14, and I know how hard it can be to find the real flavors of German baking here. If you’ve been searching for authentic German recipes—cakes, cookies, breads, and holiday favorites—you’re in the right place. I started recreating the baked goods I missed from home, and in 2023 that passion grew into Raven Cakes Bakery. Since then, I’ve become a baking instructor and now share step-by-step Germa

n recipes on my blog and YouTube channel for anyone who wants to bake with confidence, whether you’re reconnecting with your roots or discovering these recipes for the first time. Here, you'll find approachable tutorials, tested recipes, and the traditions that make German baking special. My goal is simple: to help you bake something delicious, meaningful, and truly authentic—right from your own kitchen. Follow along for new recipes, helpful tips, and a warm taste of Germany brought to your table.🤍

For the cake you can use the same base as my Black Forest cake batter...the only difference is you will use a full sheet vs a 10inch cake pan, and you bake it only for about 15minutes.

For the filling:
900g of heavy whipping cream
Powder sugar (as much as you like based on taste)

Strawberry jam or a homemade strawberry compote or really any fruit!

One of the most common questions I get at every market is where I got my costume from…so I thought it be fun to share 🤣🙈😬

I bought my dirndl when we spend 5 weeks in Germany …near lake Chiemsee and it was one of the most beautiful stores! The culture, the history and the quality of a German dirndl is just so special.

There are dirndl costumes …but the ones I have are the real deal and NOT a costume 🤣🙈😬😅🥰

Getting ready for my next market on June 6th, and I’m also in the process of working on a whole sale license so that’s been a fun and exciting next step.

Never get old…added some poppy seed and sesame seed.

☔️🍕Perfect Weekend …we have loved making Flammkuchen on weekends! It’s so easy to make and the dough only takes 30min.

My tip is to use white spelt flour! I think it’s the best for it and makes it extra soft!

For the dough ...use the same
recipe as my
strawberry Marscapone cake (just bake it thinner and as a rectangle....for about 15min at 350f)

For the filling :
1000g heavy cream
Powder sugar or 3 packages vanilla sugar (based on your taste
Strawberry or raspberry

Tip: roll up when still hot and let it cool rolled up!

I have decided to move to substack …I will keep my blog of course, but since each blog post takes a few hours I love the idea of also being able to share recipes and blog posts that are much quicker and not based on SEO! If your on substack I’d love for you to follow along 🤍

In blogging there are recipes that are just not worth sharing since it will never be found on Google…so for me the idea to share recipes more freely without needing all of the backend structure feels like the perfect balance. My blog will continue to grow…and I will keep adding recipes…but substack will be a place I can share recipes that I bake all the time without needing to sit down for 4hours to write 😊

German bread baking is truly an art. I have realized that many traditional German bread baking methods and terms are unfamiliar to people here in the United States. This is why I put this guide togeth
