Claudia Lohmann came to Canada from Germany in
1995 with her husband Chris and her three children.
She ran the Long Harbour Guesthouse B&B and the
Long Harbour Gallery on Salt Spring Island. In 2006
the family moved to Cedar on Vancouver Island. She
has always enjoyed baking and decided to make
some of the recipes, popular with her family, friends,
and guests, available to a wider public. Part of this
endeavour involved converting the metric measurements
she was accustomed to into the cup measurements
utilized in North America.
