Italians probably will tear their hair about my recipe for spaghetti muffins. I have the heart to publish it anyway. There are at least seven good reasons for it:
Our spaghetti cupcakes are
- very easy to prepare
- done at lightning speed
- super tasty
- ideal as a lunch-time snack
- taste hot and cold
- great on a buffet or for a picnic
- the big hit with children
With this post I take part in the blogparade “Unkompliziert und geschmackvoll” of “Optic Food”.

Venice offers cicchetti in an incredible range – from the very simple “cut” to the noble cicchetto, which almost means the effort of a small dish. But it’s not always just the cicchetti that create the experience, sometimes it’s certain originals behind the counter. For example Sam at Arcicchetti Bákaro near Piazzale Roma.
