chimney sweep stuck in the chimney

in germany we do believe that kissing or rubbing a chimney sweep brings luck...so for us he chimney sweep is a traditional lucky sign for the new year.

...having the santa stuck in chimney cakes in mind...i could not resist to let a chimney sweep stuck in a chimney cake to wish everyone... a  happy new year.

it turned out more as a collapsing chimney, as i wasn't patient enough to let the butter cream cool down completely...but still i think it is kind of cute...and i posted it anyways

by the way...some really professional santa down chimney cakes can be found here and here...

once again...happy new year to all of you... and may all your dreams come true...best regards...silke
