Fettisdagen (Fat Tuesday) is finally here! If you’re like us, your craving for a Swedish semla is through the roof. If you’re wondering where to satisfy your cravings – here’s a guide over where to enjoy a semla in the U.S!
If you prefer to make your own, you can find a recipe with three different ways of making the semla HERE. If you want to catch up on the history of the semla, read our article about it HERE. Did you, for example, know that a Swedish King once died after eating 14 semlor? Not a bad way to go!
