Here you’ll find a list of all our recipes. They are dishes we make at home, in our cafe or remember from our childhood. They are easy to make and delicious to eat, and that’s all that matters, really.
As well as a wide selection of bun recipes we have plenty of hearty salads, traditional dinners and easy open sandwich recipes – Scandinavian food is not all Fika, you know. At its core it is a sustainable and healthy way of eating with focus on seasonal produce, whole grains and simple preparations. With this basis we can fit in a little fika now and then, and we love to do so – for the social aspect as much as the sweet treat.

I have family in the southern part of Jutland (the part of Denmark that’s connected to continental Europe), and one of the most vivid memories of my childhood is hearing of the elaborate gatherings known as ‘Sønderjysk Kaffebord’ – literally, a ‘Southern Jutland coffee table’.
Danes love meeting up for coffee and cake of course, but in the south of Jutland, they take it to the extreme. There, a normal coffee time features seven types of soft cake, and seven kinds of biscuits. Anything less just won’t do.
