Thanks for a delicious-sounding recipe. I love baklava, so i'm sure i'll love this, too! I have probably the biggest spice cabinet you could ever imagine but, amazingly, i've never heard of Lebkuchen spice! Will have to go searching. Thanks!


Lebkuchen spice is very similar to '5 spice'


Hi Tina, How R U?? Hope all is well. These sound delightful. I like your syrup secret. It makes it so much nicer.... Jim


I guess you and Mom have the same secret!! :)
