Hello, fellow culinary explorers!
We hope you savored the vibrant flavors of Spain with our delectable Spanish Empanadas and refreshing Gazpacho last week. As our culinary journey continues, we're thrilled to invite you to discover the fascinating cuisine of Sweden! 🇸🇪
Did you know that Sweden is not only famous for its meatballs and cinnamon rolls but also boasts a rich culinary heritage? Here are a few fun facts about Sweden to pique your interest:
🥐Fika Culture: In Sweden, the coffee break takes on a whole new meaning with "Fika." It's a cherished tradition involving a pause in the day to enjoy a cup of coffee and indulge in some sweet treats. It's the perfect excuse to unwind and connect with friends or colleagues.
🧀Smörgåsbord Delights: Sweden is renowned for its lavish buffet-style feasts known as smörgåsbord. It offers a wide variety of dishes, including herring, cured salmon, Swedish cheeses, and much more. It's a true culinary delight for any food lover.
🥗The Nobel Prize Banquet: Every year, the Nobel Prize winners and distinguished guests gather in Stockholm for a grand banquet. This prestigious event showcases the finest Swedish cuisine, prepared with utmost care and creativity.
Now, let's set our taste buds on a journey through Sweden's culinary wonders. We'll be preparing the classic Swedish Meatballs, made with a delightful mix of ground meats and served with buttery noodles.
And of course, we can't forget the iconic Cinnamon Rolls, perfect for a cozy Fika moment.
But hold on to your aprons because next week, we'll be venturing to Germany—my home country! Get ready to embrace the flavors of German cuisine as we explore traditional dishes, I grew up with.
I am excited to bring a taste of Germany to our culinary passport journey and celebrate the flavors that hold a special place in my heart.

PS: Summer camps are in full swing! We did two virtual classes that were a huge success, we baked our hearts out and in the evenings we made delicious dinners.
This week we started our first In-Person camp in 3 years! It is so much fun!
If you are still looking for more summer fun, we still have a few spots open, both for virtual cooking & baking classes, as well as a handful of spots for our In-Person camps.
