BBQuchen

GERMANY - 2013

BBQuchen is a precooked, cake-like dessert, which is barbecued and served warm with a fruity sauce.

BBQuchen is a precooked, cake-like product with a fruity sauce, which is heated by the warm blaze of a barbecue before serving. It is offered in innovative and functional packaging, which can double as an underlay for the grill. After being grilled BBQuchen has a crispy, golden-brown crust and a moist middle. The interplay of the sweet, warm BBQuchen and the slightly sour, cold sauces cause a pleasant, harmonic taste experience. Due to its shape it is associated with barbecue and easy to handle with barbecue-tools. The dough consists of nuts, eggs, sugar and grated fruits or vegetables. Therefore it is suitable for vegetarians, and is also free of lactose and gluten. Through variation of the ingredients many flavours can be created for suiting the different seasons. Already developed types of BBQuchen are courgette-coconut (with pineapple-mint sauce) and poppy seed-mango (with raspberry-lime sauce) for a summer barbecue, and a wintery hazelnut-apple-cinnamon (with ginger-orange sauce) for Christmas markets.
