Recipe for Bundt Cake (bábovka)

Rose’s mom and her two sisters attended a convent school in Horažďovice. At that time the girls gained knowledge, personality development and led them to the diligence. They learnt there how to cook, knit, crochet, embroider, sew and so on.

The founder of the Czech branch of the School Sisters of Notre Dame was P. Gabriel Schneider who bought the monastery church of the Virgin Mary in 1853. In 1853-1952 the school for nurses worked here. After 1990 they returned. The classes were still taken in there.
