Nordic food

This is what I eat in a friend's home on the birthday of Norway.


Is it delicious? Yes, a little too sweet. But for black coffe, it is fine.

And in the following is traditional foor in east Finland. I have learned how to make it.

  1. Hi! I am 邵恩雨,one of the reporter of the group "Food."
    I am going to present some traditional food in Denmark.
    And, I had found one of the snack "Kransekage" which looks like the one in this photo.
    Would you please tell me whether they are the same or not. If they are the same, does that mean "Kransekage" is a traditional food aroud the Nordic?
    Thanks for your answering!

  2. Dear Bishop.
    YES, it is the same. Kransekage can be served in small pieces( mostly for New Year) or like this on as a tall "tower". This is mainly made and served for big events like weddings, confirmations or special birthdays - and is quite expensive. The Norwegians are fond of making it themselves and that makes it cheaper.
    Is this answer good enough ? or ask again.
    Best greetings,
    Ingrid.
