09 Konditor & Cook

from Life in Scents

Gerhart Jenne is the konditormeister behind London bakery Konditor & Cook, who's famed confections include Magic Cakes, over 3,000 of which will be put together to create a giant ‘cake' portrait of the Queen for the Diamond Jubilee celebrations. Together with partner Paul Cons he oversees a small empire which now occupies 6 distinct locations across central London. Gerhardt recalls the nostalgic, and not always pleasant, smells from his childhood in rural Germany, as well as many more from a career spent immersed in food. We also hear of Paul's childhood smell recollections as well as those from his time running Flesh, at Manchester's legendary nightclub, The Hacienda.
