She became known for reading fairy tales, with support from her grandson Janik. He also came up with the name “Marmeladenoma” and takes care of the production and technology behind the scenes.

Marmeladenoma won an award at the StreamAwards
How did the interview come about? On February 24, 2024, the eagerly anticipated StreamAwards 2023 took place, where numerous streamers were nominated and awarded in various categories.
From “Best Jumpscare” to “Most Surreal Moment” and “Best Cringe Moment,” everything was represented. But the best outfit of the evening was also appropriately awarded, and this prize went to Marmeladenoma, who was present in person.
During the event, host StarletNova conducted a captivating interview with her, which left a lasting impression on many viewers.
How did the interview go? During the interview, StarletNova empathetically sat next to Marmeladenoma, and the two exchanged intense looks while Marmeladenoma shared her moving story.
She reflected on how unusual it is for her as an “old woman” to be present at the event. She revealed that she was born in 1931. StarletNova responded with a surprised “Wow,” since it is rare for people from that generation to participate so actively in the Twitch world. Nevertheless, Marmeladenoma emphasized her love for youth and her willingness to learn from them.
She also proudly mentioned her over 200,000 followers, who she and her grandson have gained through their joint livestreams. While her grandson handles the technical aspects – Marmeladenoma explained the flow of their streams – her part involves reading stories twice, a Q&A session, and reading again.
“I have a wonderful evening of life because of this”
How does she keep in touch with her viewers? She revealed her connection by writing letters to her viewers every day until midnight, allowing them to share in her life. This gesture is particularly touching considering that she once dreamed of traveling the world, but now feels that this possibility is unlikely due to her age.
Nevertheless, she finds a way to partially realize that dream through her viewers by maintaining correspondence with people worldwide. She stated, “I have a wonderful evening of life because of this.”
“Whoever gives love, receives love”
What has she experienced in her past? Marmeladenoma also shared about her tragic past during the interview. She revealed that she nearly lost her entire family in the war and experienced the horrors of the Third Reich.
“We had to adapt, we had to learn anew, we had to realize,” she reflected on this difficult time. These experiences prompted her to think deeply and led to a profound realization: “Look around, you are not the one who suffers the most.”
She then started to leave out the “I” and give the “you.” This allows her to lead a “win-win life,” as she explains.
“Whoever gives love, receives love,” she added, emphasizing that she now lives by this principle. This moving moment during the interview gave many viewers goosebumps and remains in many memories.
Does she still have contact with Gronkh? After this event, many people asked Marmeladenoma if she still had contact with Gronkh, as he significantly contributed to her fame.
In a TikTok video from February 26, 2024, she clarified that she no longer has contact with Gronkh. She explained that she understands this, as Gronkh tirelessly works hard and performs countless good deeds.
“I won’t burden him myself,” she added. Nonetheless, she emphasized her deep gratitude towards Gronkh, which, according to her, will last until her death.
