Pastry chef Mirka van Gils Slavíková has travelled almost all over the world, won dozens of pastry competitions and baked thousands of desserts. But she has always promoted Czech buns, cakes and gingerbread around the world. She has put her foreign experience and her tribute to quality confectionery into successful cookbooks for those who like to bake and eat. For example, in the cookbook Famózní! 2 she included unconventional versions of sweets familiar from home and desserts that smell and taste like the remoteness of foreign countries. The following Famous! From Grandma is her declaration of love for Czech confectionery classics.
