I end up slicing the baked cake portion in four equal parts. Then, I fill each part and piece it back together to get the rectangular shape. The almond topping masks the pieces. I find the Oetker ingredients at Cost Plus World Market. I enjoy each and every bite.


    That looks *perfect*! Thanks so much for sharing! Now I just have to find some time to bake one for work...

    Bienenstich was available today at the Lincoln Square Maifest. It was my first bienenstich ever, and I thought it very good indeed. The filling was not overly sweet, and the "cake" was fresh. I believe the Austrian Bakery was the supplier.

    The Austrian Bakery (on Clark) has really good authentic Bienenstich. I've been there a few times and they always have it. I know he makes special orders too.

    My highly placed source informs me that the Bienenstich custard will be offered today. Wondering if it would be weird to drive 1 1/2 hours for a cup of custard.

    It wouldn't be weird at all...especially if you pack a cooler with dry ice and bring some back for LTH friends....

    The Kondotorei at Milwaukee's GermanFest this weekend had a good-looking bienenstich and some excellent tortes. I was inspired to ask who the supplier was. It turned out to be Austrian Bakery.
