ABOUT OUR CAKES

The name Vondelkoeken owes its name to the fact that Frans Ruhof bakery had its business on Joost van den Vondellaan in Deventer in the 1970s.

The secret recipe originates in Raalte. Bakker Hein van de Luycken started with this delicious soft gingerbread with a crispy outside after the war. In the 1970s, the secret recipe was further developed and baked according to traditional methods.

The recipe has been preserved all this time, so that we can still proudly present these tasty and mouth-wateringly delicious cakes years later. Today we still use the same ingredients in the same traditional way as before, only now we have more than just gingerbread.

The flour and butter are the basis, we now have 8 different cakes.

It is therefore a wonderful fact that the grandson of Frans, Gijs Ruhof, will continue the family tradition of baking cakes 35 years later.
