ASAGAN Virtual bakery
Book with a virtual bakery and real worlds of discovery
The book Bäckermaus & Donaustrudel is the heart and origin of a virtual, interactive bakery where gems of knowledge, recipes and music videos by the Danube Pirates from ASAGAN are waiting to be discovered. The virtual bakery is a delightful and exciting addition which opens up new approaches to the book as a medium for all ages, anywhere in the world and anytime. The virtual bakery is not a computer-programmed room. Rather, it is a real bakery that has been replicated using modern technology. Here, too, the focus is on conveying an environment that can be felt and is real.

Bäckermaus & Donaustrudel
More than a book!
The ASAGAN series of books combines real history with new, fictional adventures illustrated with prints da-ting back as far as 500 years and populated by bold, mischievous and modern heroines and heroes. The Baker-mouse paid a visit to the heroines and heroes of the ASAGAN series of books and baked her favourite recipes with them: ASAGAN – Bäckermaus & Donaustrudel (Bakermouse and Danube Strudel) whisks readers away to the sweetest of all worlds and presents Austria’s best-loved classic sweets and their (hi)stories.
20 easy-as-pie recipes and three stories invite them to get baking, tell stories and share! Beautifully illustrated the multi-award-winning collective ASAGAN uncovers historic treasures and combines them with modern heroes and daring adventures.
In ASAGAN, the book as a medium is reimagined with the addition of dynamic digital and analogue elements. This opens up new approaches and options for communication and interaction that make the book a long-lasting experience!
