I have posted about the Danish Fastelavn tradition before but I think the Fastelavnsboller is totally worth revisiting, especially since they are one of my favorite Danish treats. If your curious to [...]

Roulade is one of my (many) favorite cakes and my mother use to make a fantastic roulade with a raspberry cream. I wanted to make some version of her cake and this is what I came up with. Roulade can be a very intimidating dessert to make, I know I felt a bit anxious about it myself. [...]

Rhubarb Granita - what a brilliant idea! I came across this recipe in a Danish magazine and being a big rhubarb fan and all, I immediately ran to the store to get rhubarb. And I was in luck, because fresh firm rhubarb (not limp please) are not that easy to find around here for some odd reason. So [...]
