February in Scandinavia is the season of Fastelavn and fastelavnsboller. In Denmark, this holiday is similar to Carnival and involves children dressing up in costumes and hitting barrels filled with candy.

December 13th is Saint Lucy’s Day (Luciadag), a Christian holiday that Scandinavia celebrates. It is an imported Swedish holiday in Denmark, so most of our traditions stem from Sweden.
We love bread rolls. Possibly more than regular loaves of bread, and that’s a significant statement for us. They’re just the perfect little package of bread, with lots of crust on the outside and a fluffy interior.
I firmly believe that a good slice, loaf, roll, etc. of bread has the power to change your entire day. That’s why starting the morning with freshly baked bread is unbeatable and sets you up perfectly for the day ahead.
Life has been full of lots of changes recently. I (Emma) just moved to the UK after living at home for a year and a half and it has definitely been a huge adjustment.
We love to say that every recipe on this website is a favorite of ours. And it’s genuinely true that these are our favorite recipes, otherwise, we wouldn’t be sharing them with you.
Fluffy, freshly baked rolls fresh out of the oven. Cut in half and topped with any of the following: butter, jam, cheese, Nutella, peanut butter, etc. Need I say more?
Summer means grilling season, and therefore it’s the perfect time to share one of our favorite ways to eat hot dogs! While regular hot dogs are delicious for sure, they’re pretty messy.
Last week, we posted a recipe for landbrød, or country bread, that has quickly turned into one of our favorite bread recipes ever. For us, bread recipes are all about simple ingredients that create something wonderful.
