Description

Through memory, tradition and celebration - cake can help you find home, no matter where you are. In this episode we speak to:  

  • Aunty Dale from My Dilly Bag shares how First Nations people have made cakes for thousands of years. 
  • Dimitria Athanasas and her daughter Sia share the meaning behind Koliva - an ancient traditional Greek funeral cake - after Dimitra made it for the Greek Orthodox Church in West End for 12 years.  
  • We learn how to make a Puerto Rican staple from Frank’s mum Jackie, and the only other Puerto Rican we could find in Australia - Will Sanchez aka Chef from The Hood.
