Græskarkage (Pumpkin Cake)
Nobody loves pumpkin-flavored everything in the autumn more than Americans. Take it from us, if you walk around a grocery store in the fall, you will find things you never even thought could exist in a pumpkin version!

If you had to choose one fruit or flavor that reminded you of the start of spring, what would it be? For me, nothing screams sunshine and springtime more than rhubarb.
Our blog may be mostly devoted to Scandinavian and mostly Danish baked goods, but that doesn’t mean we don’t know when to appreciate an absolute classic dessert.
Hi everyone! It has been a few weeks since our last blog post. Sofie was on her honeymoon and then we had to catch up on developing some recipes so we took a little hiatus, but we’re back now!
Marzipan is one of our favorite sweets in the whole world, and we love any baked good made with it. It’s just so sweet and the almond taste is absolutely delicious.
Today’s recipe is for a citronroulade, or lemon swiss roll. It consists of a fluffy and airy fatless sponge rolled up with super tart lemon curd and sweet whipped cream.
Autumn is one of the best times of year to bake, with winter being the only season that beats it. That’s just my opinion, of course, but I think most people who do a lot of Christmas baking would agree!
Any Dane reading our translation of this cake as “Raspberry Meringue Cake” will probably chuckle a bit. That’s because it’s not at all what the Danish means. Really, this cake should be called “Grandfather’s Beard.”
Some recipes are great because of how simple they are. We love to share plenty of complicated recipes, like our wienerbrød (Danish pastries), but sometimes, simple is the way to go.
