The German baking class was a great chance to learn some German culture but in a sweeter way. German native and German professor Carla Kluthdecided to share a part of her culture with Western students through baking. In the commons, students met up with Kluth and made hildabrötchens, a signature German cookie with a jam filled-center.
“This is something people do back home in Germany,” Kuth said. “They’re easy to make, so people should make them here, too.”
Along with learning how to bake German cookies, students who attended also learned some German culture. Sophomore Gracy Greener enjoyed the togetherness as much as she enjoyed the cookies.
“I really liked how we came together and learned some German words,” Greener said.
At the end of the class, students were able to take some sweet new treats home along with some sweet new knowledge about Germany.
