With “Naturally vegan baking”, Philip Khoury shows that vegan baked goods do not have to be sacrificed. On the contrary: his innovative recipes are based entirely on natural ingredients, without resorting to substitute products, and impress with their taste and quality. Whether it’s fluffy brioche, heavenly Sachertorte or creamy tiramisu – Khoury proves that European baking classics can also be masterfully made vegan.

We are particularly impressed by the way Philip Khoury shares his expertise. He not only explains the preparation step by step, but also the role of the ingredients used, such as olive oil or sweet potatoes in the dough. This scientific approach makes the book exciting not only for baking beginners, but also for experienced amateur bakers.

The additional QR codes, which lead directly to the author’s English-language baking videos, are a highlight. This practical addition ensures that more complex recipes are even easier to make. The high-quality design and exceptional photography also make the book a visual delight.

Lots of noise – little context

What does this have to do with communication?

What is it? Technically hardly necessary, loud and therefore highly suspicious from a social perspective, and experiencing its second spring or autumn in February? That’s right – it’s the leaf blower! Once invented to blow autumn leaves off the streets and somewhere where, in the best case scenario, they might be less of a nuisance. Currently, this device is experiencing an unexpected wake-up call from hibernation. It is needed to blow away confetti after the carnival parade. The controller may be pleased to be able to amortize a “fabulously expensive” machine in half the time. The neighbors are probably less enthusiastic about this.
