APPLE HARVEST CAKE w/ CARDAMOM AND LEMON

Oh well Hello there! It really feels like its been ages since I sat down to write a new recipe. You can probably guess what’s been keeping me away from my computer. Exams. The past few weeks have been the dreaded pre-exam weeks where I go into zombie-mode in my PJ-bottoms just flipping pages after…

BLACK FOREST BROWNIE

Someone asked me how it felt to know that a lot of strangers read my blog, people I’ve never met in real life and I can’t say I had a good answer to that question. Firstly, all of you leave such sweet comments that make my day every time (can’t really have  bad day anymore) so I…

CLASSIC CRÈME BRÛLÉE w/ A POMEGRANATE TWIST

Happy last-Friday-of-August everyone! I can’t believe that it’s almost September. This summer have flow by faster than ever, but I guess thats good.

BLUEBERRY AND SEA BUCKTHORN COCONUT CRUMBLE

  Today I experienced the worst round of golf in history. We left our home early, it was a bit chilly but the sun was shining and everything was great. We entered the golf course and teed off. Then autumn came to town. Hard. The rain poured down horizontally and there was true nordic winds that felt…

SWEDISH SUNSHINE BUNS

This summer have just flown by so fast. All those days I marked in my calendar in the beginning of June – The weekend in Gothenburg, the last day at work (for the second time) and our trip to Belgium are just moments away now. I’ts been a good one so far I would say. I’ve…

GRUYÈRE AND OREGANO BISCUITS

The Swedish summer haven’t been the sunniest one so far but today summer came to town again after a month of terrible weather. We had around 10-15 degrees and rain all last week but today it’s all bright blue skies. It feels like the Sweden wakes up whenever the sun is out, on my morning…

NO BAKE STRAWBERRY/ ELDERFLOWER FROZEN CHEESECAKE

I’ve started my morning with watching/laughing at all the cyclists that are doing ‘Vätternrundan’ (pronounced vet-turn-rund-an) today in the pouring rain. They ride by just outside our window. Vätternrundan is the one of the largest bicycle-races in the world – it’s 300 km long around the shoreline of Lake Vättern and actually have no winners….

SWEDISH KLADDKAKA w/ LEMON AND BEURRE NOISETTE

It have been the most amazing weather here the last week, 17 degrees and sunny. And also, yesterday was a bank holiday (or as we call them – red day) so the weekend suddenly felt twice as long. I spent most of my day off in my garden, planting and sunbathing. Somehow I managed to get…

SWEDISH CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY BISKVIER

Finally Friyay! I woke up feeling so tired today. We celebrated a birthday yesterday at a local pub and then ended the night with birthday-cake and coffee. And that coffee, it never bothers me to drink coffee late, its just something you get used to when working late nights in a kitchen. But, this was probably the strongest…
