On Thursday, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge learned some of the tricks to making German pretzels and candy during their tour of Berlin.
The couple started their day with a visit to a traditional German market, and by the looks of it, most of the town of Heidelberg showed up for a glimpse of the royal couple.
“The Mayor of Heidelberg shows The Duke and Duchess around a traditional German market in the central square,” Kensington Palace wrote on Twitter.

After the warm welcome from the town, Will and Kate were given a quick tutorial on traditional German pretzel making before trying their hand at it. By the looks of it, they were having a blast!
“After a quick lesson from local apprentices, The Duke and Duchess get to grips with pretzel making!” Kensington Palace wrote alongside the pic.

A savory treat just can’t be enjoyed without something sweet so after rolling and twisting the pretzels, the couple made traditional candies together.
“Making sweeties!” the caption read.

Before the day of cooking, Prince William and Duchess Catherine made their first stop in Heidelberg at the German Cancer Research Institute where they donned white coats and learned more about how the research center is battling leukemia.
