Sweden isn't just famous for meatballs and IKEA.
The country has a seriously underrated dessert culture.
Here are 10 Swedish desserts and sweets worth trying.
1. Kanelbullar
The classic Swedish cinnamon bun.
Soft, fragrant and packed with cinnamon and cardamom.
2. Semla
A soft cardamom bun filled with almond paste and whipped cream.
Traditionally associated with the period leading up to Lent.
3. Chokladbollar
Chocolate oat balls rolled in coconut or pearl sugar.
Simple.
Dangerously snackable.
4. Kladdkaka
A Swedish chocolate cake that's deliberately gooey in the centre.
Think somewhere between a brownie and a chocolate cake.
5. Prinsesstårta
A classic Swedish layer cake featuring sponge cake, cream, jam and a distinctive green marzipan topping.
6. Dammsugare
A Swedish pastry made with a marzipan-like exterior and a chocolatey interior.
7. Pannkakor
Swedish pancakes are thin, crepe-like and commonly served with jam and cream.
8. Ostkaka
A traditional Swedish cheesecake with a texture that's quite different from the dense cheesecake you might know.
9. Swedish Liquorice
Okay, technically candy rather than dessert.
But we couldn't leave it out.
10. Swedish Pick & Mix
Because sometimes dessert doesn't need a plate.
Just give us a bag of candy.
