And still today immeasurable quantities of them are sent yearly throughout the world. It was no coincidence that the best gingerbread cookies and peppernuts were made in Nürnberg. The city was a very important trading center already in the 14th century receiving all kinds of oriental spices like Cinnamon, Cardamon, Cloves, Nutmeg and Pepper via Venice. Most of the honey came from the area around Nürnberg in those days; in fact, the entire Nürnberg Forest was called the ""Emperors bee-garden"". Thus, the domestic honey mixed with the imported spices brought out the unique flavour of these wonderful cookies. When Emperor Frederic III held his annual assembly in Nürnberg in 1487, he gave special recognition to the Gingerbread Bakers by ordering one cookie each for ""all Nürnberg children who are already able to walk"". (4,000 pieces needed, population was only 25,000). Ever since medieval times through prosperous periods and through wars, the trade of the Gingerbread Baker has survived. Only the methods of making the cookies has changed. But the recipes remain the same. And even, a Lebkuchen from Nürnberg smells and tastes not only delicious, but also passes a bit of history on to us.
