Most people don't think of Sweden when they think of European desserts, but it's really a shame because there are a lot of delicious options that everyone needs to know about.
If you plan to go to Sweden soon, take notes.
These are some of the most exciting desserts you'll try there.

Semlo buns
These breads look a bit like doughnuts, although they are baked rather than fried.
The soft bread is filled with marzipan sauce and whipped cream.
Bread adds cardamom to the dough, giving them a subtle aroma and subtle flavor that makes them delicious.
Cardamom dough, almonds and whipped cream are perfectly blended in one bite.

Sticky chocolate cake – Caldekaka
This chocolate cake is not your childhood birthday cake.
On the contrary, it is moist and rich on the outside and crispy on the outside.
It is very dense and is usually finished with only a little powdered sugar and a little whipped cream. If you really want to go all out, of course you can also pair it with ice cream.

Christmas Toffee – the trick
The trick is simple: it's toffee made from caramel and butter.
However, just because it's simple, it doesn't make it any less stunning.
It is sweet, crunchy and can sometimes include nuts.
It's the perfect Christmas present, but can be enjoyed all year round. The word "knack" means crack or crack in Swedish because toffee cracks and breaks when you eat it.

Apple cake – Appelkaka
This Swedish apple cake is excellent.
The cake is super soft, moist and tender, contrasting with the deliciously crispy apple and sweet vanilla sauce.
Any apple and cake lover will absolutely go crazy about it.

Cinnamon bread – Canelbuller
While you may already be familiar with cinnamon buns, these originated in Sweden.
These incredibly soft breads are seasoned with cinnamon sugar.
There is another popular variant of these breads, called kardemummabullar, which has the aroma of cardamom instead of cinnamon and is just as delicious.

Princess Cake – Prince
Swedish princess cake is a popular birthday cake option consisting of sponge cake with fruit fillings, cream, and marzipan toppings, which are usually pastel green in color, which explains its original name, gron torta, or green cake.
Either way, whatever you want to call it, you're sure to love this delicious cake.
