Sylvia Weinstock

Article Abstract:

Wedding cake baker Sylvia Weinstock considers her cakes to be works of art that are an affordable luxury. Her bakery makes floral cakes by researching what the flowers, to be made from sugar or marzipan, are supposed to look like. She has a team of bakers and decorators that prepare the cake the day before the wedding. She enjoys baking and sees it as a sensory experience that implicates touch, smell, sight, taste and memory.

Madness visible

Article Abstract:

The inhuman treatment of ethnic Albanians by Serbian nationalists brings to mind similar scenes reported during the Bosnian conflict in the early 1990s. Yugoslavia's barbaric ethnic cleansing policy in Kosovo is perhaps the biggest reason for NATO's decision to intervene militarily in the region.
