Tasting local delicacies

We have dined on Franconian sausage, sauerkraut, vegetarian German dumplings and Wiener schnitzel, washing them down with German Pilsner beer. In Rothenburg, we tasted the local sweet delicacy called a Schneeball. Most of the bakeries stock them in a huge range of flavours. Basically, it is biscuit pastry made in a long strip, sprinkled with icing sugar, and bundled together into a balls much like a loose ball of string.
