Autumn is now knocking on the door fairly insistently. Mornings are much cooler than they were a few weeks ago, and increasingly frequent swaths of fog envelop the landscape.

Be honest, did you know our domestic seas, the North Sea and the Baltic Sea are home to small whales? So-called porpoises. The sea mammals are approximately 1.60 meters and at first sight, remind of dolphins.
Here are a few special features of the recipe—don’t worry, though; it’s super easy, just not your run-of-the-mill lemon cake:
Organic spelt flour instead of wheat flour: Spelt is considered more natural than wheat, is easier to digest, contains more minerals, and has a nutty flavor. It’s a conscious choice that benefits your health and the environment because spelt is usually easier to grow.
Oil instead of butter: Vegetable oil makes the dough moist, makes the cake vegan, and has a smaller carbon footprint than animal butter, which is considered one of the most climate-damaging foods.
Chamomile tea as a liquid: The biggest surprise is probably the use of freshly brewed chamomile tea. It makes the dough wonderfully moist and gives the cake a delicate, almost floral note. Tip: Let the tea steep well so that the aroma comes into its own. SANDnature uses “Smooth Operator” organic chamomile tea from the tea manufacturer Samova.
Turmeric for flavor and color: This “super spice” not only gives the cake a golden yellow color, but also adds light, exotic flavors.
