while I was eating my delicious
laskiaispulla - I thought about making a chart about my favourite finnish pastries. after some
sketching and scanning my chart is ready to be shared.
my 10 favourite finnish pastries:
✻ click on each of the finnish names to read the recipe - see list below.









1. Korvapuusti - cinnamon roll
2. Voisilmäpulla - butter eye bun
3. Piparkakut - ginger cookies
4. Joulutorttu - christmas tart
5. Runebergintorttu - Runeberg's cake
6. Laskiaispulla - shrove tuesday bun
7. Tippaleipä - Vappufinnish doughnut
8. Munkkirinkilät - doughnut
9. Pannukakku - oven pancake
10. Tiikerikakku - tiger cake
finnish pastries are all delicious: some of them are made
to celebrate a specific occasion (
Runebergintorttu or
Tippaleipä) - some others I can find
every morning even at my local supermarket (
Korvapuusti or
Voisilmäpulla). I cannot go one day without having one of these sweet treats!
thank you for this post! seriously! i cant wait to get baking!!!!
ReplyDeleteyay :-) which one of those are you going to bake first? I actually have baked only half of them myself... most of them seem pretty hard to make. let me know how it goes :-)
Deletefai venire fame a me e marta (la mia compana di banco) :)
ReplyDeletebelli i disegni! quando salgo li voglio provare tutti *-*
<3
grazie Emi :-)
Deletepurtroppo quando arriverai non credo si potranno trovare tutti: la torta di Runeberg si trova a inizio febbraio, mentre la la laskiaispulla in questo periodo. se sarai fortunata potremo trovare già i dolci del primo maggio, invece. e ovviamente krovapuusti, voipulla, munkki, pannukakku e tiikerikakku ;-)
i piipari e le joulutorttu potremmo anche farli, ma sarebbero troppo natalizi per aprile ;-)
mmm yummy ! adorable :)
ReplyDeleteyes, yummy! :-)
Deletethank you, Alice!
Oh Polly, this is so lovely!
ReplyDeleteI want to try all of them! ;D

Deletewow, it's interesting to see how similar they are to some you can find also in northern germany, thanks for linking back to the recipes !
ReplyDeletethank you for stopping by! :-)
Deleteyes, northern europe baked sweets tend to be similar in many ways - especially when it comes down to the use of cinnamon and cardamom.
Ooh, these look tempting...
