These cakes were dense, generally shaped as bread loaves, and baked directly on the floor of an oven. Italian Jews disseminated these rudimentary honey cakes throughout medieval Europe. The current form of honey cake evolved over centuries, assuming its closest relation to our present concept in the late nineteenth century. Its evolution is part of the agricultural history and eating habits of Europe in which wheat emerged as the dominant grain. By the end of the seventeenth century bakers began to update the doorstopper density of honey cakes by adding eggs and oil and substituting wheat flour for bread crumbs. The result was lighter, more tender loaves. The introduction of alkaline chemical leavenings in the eighteenth century led to even lighter lekach or honey cakes.

Gifts are great for business all year long, not only in December. Don’t forget about these opportunities to provide a reminder of your company with a thoughtfully selected gift and imprinted message!! 1. Closing a sale. Give gifts when a deal is closed to say thank you and congratulations on a major purchase, for example for a new home, appliance, car or a major business purchase. 2. Ending a project. During the project, to promote teamwork, celebrate the completion of a major phase, provide visibility, generate enthusiasm and show good faith, distribute gifts to users and project participants to say “job well done”. The end of a project is especially signifi cant when you highlight overall accomplishments and contributions. 3. To demonstrate good will on an ongoing basis. This option is not just based on events or holidays. Gift giving should be part of an ongoing, year long business strategy. 4. Personal and business milestones. Personal milestones include retirements, anniversaries, birthdays and promotions. Reaching or surpassing sales goals, grand openings, the introduction of new products and services, company growth and expansion count as business milestones. A celebration is an excellent time to give gifts. 5. Referral Gifts. Show appreciation all year long for customer referrals. Referrals and positive word of mouth can grow your business in major ways. Use referral gifts to encourage customers for referrals that turn into business.
