<p>In Catalonia you can enjoy the most wonderful cakes - Catalan Pastis – some of which have a unique local character developed with proud traditions. History and politics are briefly commented.</p><p>Catalan Pastis is the third volume in our series <em>World of Cakes</em>.</p><p>In <em>Luxembourg – A Piece of Cake</em> we toured the incredible cake shop world in tiny Luxembourg. The variety far exceeds what you would expect in a country smaller than Rhode Island. The book was an unplanned accident.</p><p>In <em>Florida Cakes</em> we continued the habit of taking pictures of some of the cakes we purchased. Our life took us to the sunny beaches of Florida for a while. The cake designs in Florida are just incredible.</p><p>Now back in Europe we had business in Spain and especially in Catalonia, which we enjoyed during a number of months.</p><p>Again, we took advantage of its uniquely enjoyable cake shops –<em> bombonierie</em> – making the most wonderful cakes – <em>pastis</em> in Catalan - some which are not found elsewhere.</p><p>There must be at least one thousand cake shops and cafes in Barcelona alone serving these great specialities.</p><p>We will try to discover some of the secrets behind this formidable variety and quality of <em>Catalan pastis</em> – Catalan cakes. You will be surprised!</p><p>We very much hope you will enjoy the tour and will take the opportunity to visit Spain and Catalonia yourself one day!</p><p>Many thanks to Concha Marchante of the Servei de Pesca Continental in Barcelona and Professor Emili Emili Garcia-Berthou from the University of Girone for their kind assistance with very interesting information on the fish in the Tordera River.</p><p>Illustrated.
