An Edible Voyage

September 2019 Punschrulle, affectionately known as vacuum cleaners, are very moorish! The sugary inside of crushed biscuits, cocoa and butter is dampened down by pungent Punsch liqueur, then the whole thing is wrapped in green marzipan, and the ends dipped in chocolate.  Find it at Vete-Katten, a Stockholm institution. 

September 2019 Sweden is a great place for sweet treats, and having hiked on the Kungsleden, I felt I could justify trying a fair few! I was a little sceptical about Princess Cake - it looks so sickly and heavy, but that couldn't be further from what it is actually like.  Layers of the lightest sponge, pastry cream whipped to clouds of air, and raspberry jam, encased in green marzipan.  Nothing was too sweet or overpowering, the tartness of the raspberries shone through, and it was like eating flavoursome mouthfuls of air - divine! Find it at Vete-Katten, a Stockholm institution.
