Walking along the Naschmarkt in Vienna / Austria, a stand advertised nicely its Wandererschnitte (“hikers’ fruit bar”). It is pressed not baked and consists of a variety of dried fruits and seeds. Despite the nice German name “Wandererschnitte” it seems to be produced in Turkey. It is close to the fig cakes which can be found in Croatia or in Italy. Tastes better than a trail mix. For sure.

Ingredients:

• Raisin
• Date
• Damson plum
• Cranberry
• Sour cherry
• Apricot
• Peanut
• Hazelnut
• Brazil nut
• Pumpkin seed
• Linseed
• Sunflower seed
• Carob gum
