Alvar & Ivar Semla!

We made a special stop to pick up some Semla for Fat Tuesday or "Fettisdagen" from one of the neighbourhood bakeries, Alvar & Ivar! "AKTAS" warning label on the bag to remind you to be careful when holding it to not damage the semla!

Alvar & Ivar specializes in sourdough bread but they also offer some delicious Swedish sweet buns like cinnamon buns and cardamom buns. 

For Fat Tuesday, they offer traditional Semla for takeaway!

The whipped cream is piled high on these wheat buns!

Don't be surprised if you go into food coma after your Semla fika or coffee break!

Enjoy your Fat Tuesday eats and remember don't forget your snacks!
