Nice to know

Lieke is a foodie. She has loved cooking and baking since she was about 10-11 years old. She loves desserts and chocolate. Nothing is more fun than standing in the kitchen with her and seeing her eyes glow when there is a chocolate filling left over or something else she can lick out of the bowl. When we eat together with her parents (Brecht and Jeroen), sister and brother (Rosa and Tijmen) she likes to come and help or she brings something she made at home. Often that is a... dessert. This one is really super tasty and fresh.
