No castle feasts in the past, when during weekly festivities guests, along with the servants, managed to consume as much as 40 deer, two dozen larks, and hundreds of poultry pieces, drink a hundred barrels of wine and even more beer, never happened without a high consumption of flour, sugar, raisins, almonds, honey, poppy seeds, apples, cream or butter, and other ingredients.

Confectioners made incredible sweet treats from them. Some of the preparations, old even two hundred years, have survived to this day and have literally become part of Czech and Moravian families.
The book contains 63 such recipes. And it is true that all the slices, creamy petits fours, and passion cakes tasted incredibly good on the castle tables as well as in modern households.
