(So a bit in contrast to Christmas, which is more to come together as family, this is for friends).An East Frisian tradition are "Neujahrskuchen", "New Year's Cake". (It's not really a cake, I guess, making it requires a kinda specialized waffle iron for a very thin waffle, might also be suitable for ice cream waffles?  It's made with sugar water, butter, flour, and some anis and cardamon for the classic flavor).  [URL unfurl="true"]https://cloer.com/de-de/rezepte/ostfreesen/hoernchen-neujahrskuchen[/URL]In my parent's neighborhood, it's also tradition for the men to go together around the neighborhood and have a little drink and some new year's cake or something. I don't actually know how wide-spread that is in Germany or even just East Frisia, but it's a tradition.</blockquote>
