A baker who vowed to take the recipe for his cinnamon cake to the grave kept his promise by having it etched onto his gravestone. Mourners at the funeral of Jaakov Topor, 93, from Kibbutz Naan in Israel turned up for the funeral to find all the details for his cinnamon cake recipe etched in stone. "Everyone in the community had tried at one time or another to get the recipe out of him as it was a best seller, but he vowed he would never tell anyone while there was still breath in his body," said his grandson. Topor had kept the recipe secret for more than 75 years. It included a kilo of flour, 50 grams of yeast, a pinch of salt, three eggs, seven spoons of sugar, 200 grams of margarine, one and a half glasses of milk and cinnamon to taste. |
