It's a tradition for my family to make our own sweets for Easter. When I was child I was looking forward to these days to come in order to make with my mom and sister a dough for "tsoureki".- Tsoureki is a kind of sweet bread that my family makes at Easter.- I was waiting until the dough was ready and then my mom split it in many pieces. One of them was mine and another one was for my sister. Years came by and now I'm the mom who seperates and splits the dough. After so many years of making the "tsoureki" I still find magic the way that the dough rises and double its size!
These two little dough children are Lazarus,
one for every child that lives in the house.

We also make buns in several shapes.
This year my youngest won our family's prize for the nicest bun! She made a special flower-bun!
Our work doesn't stop when the oven is turned off. I prepare four baskets with the sweets for the grandmothers and my girls' godmothers who come home to bring to their godchildren a candle and a present(usually shoes).
HAPPY EASTER EVERYBODY!!!

they look sooooo good - do you export to china at all?! ;)
What beautiful buns you make but the flower buns were just too sweet. LOL! You have a very clever girl to make such artwork out of dough. I enjoyed your easter report and thought it a nice tradition to bring shoes for the children as presents. They outgrow their old ones so quickly.
Love your camomile photos below. We get these flowers too in Finland but much later in the middle of the summer.
It is beautiful to keep these traditions alive. The breads look very artistic, especially the "flowerbuns"!
