Tarteletter (Tartlets w/ Chicken and Asparagus)
These tarteletter are one of our favorite Danish dishes. The combination of the chicken and asparagus sauce and the flaky pastry shell is absolute perfection.
Kardemummabullar (Swedish Cardamom Buns)
These cardamom-spiced buns are probably one of our favorite sweet buns. And that’s hard for us to admit, as we’re Danish and these buns hail from Sweden.
Medaljer (Pastry Cream Cakes)
These medaljer, or pastry cream cakes, are a decadent and delicious treat perfect for a dinner party or gathering. Medaljer literally translates to “medals.”
Kanelsnegle (With Wienerbrødsdej)
Kanelsnegle, or cinnamon snails, are a staple of Danish pastry and by far one of our favorite treats of all time. In fact, our first recipe we posted on this website was for kanelsnegle.
Kringle (Pretzel Pastry)
Often when writing these recipes, we run into the issue of translating the Danish name of the baked good into English (see our brunsviger recipe for reference). But luckily, this one is easy!
Tebirkes (Danish Pastry with Poppy Seeds)
Tebirkes, like spandauer, is a type of Danish pastry that is very popular in Denmark. And as much as we love both spandauer and kanelsnegle, our favorite pastry is definitely tebirkes.
Spandauer (Danish Pastry with Custard or Jam)
Spandauer are a very popular Danish pastry, and you can find multiple kinds of spandauer in every bakery in Denmark. Spandauer is just a name, and doesn’t have a direct English translation.
Cremelinser (Mini Custard Pies)
Cremelinser, or just linser, are basically custard-filled shortcrust pies, and they. are. incredible. If you love vanilla custard, you won’t be able to get enough of these little pies!
Hindbærsnitter (Raspberry Bars)
Hindbærsnitter have always been a favorite in our house, and they are definitely a universally beloved pastry in Denmark. You can find them anywhere, and they sometimes vary in appearance.
