Kashunowaka 300 Posted September 25, 2003 Congratulations! (You are going off-topic...) I concur. (Laughing...) Did someone mention a cake...? :-( OK, then I'll bring you my favourite cake, Princess Cake: The picture is from the web page of a Danish bakery, where it says: Traditional Scandinavian birthday cake.Gold cake filled raspberry, custard & whipped cream. Covered with green marzipan. This cake is usually a divider between those who like marzipan and those who don't. (You are going off-topic...) I assume this cake is known in Finland too? What about you non-Scandinavians - do you have this cake? I haven't had any cake today, but it's been a very nice birthday nevertheless. Many thanks to all who have sent me greetings!

Kotoseiya Yuichi 3 Posted September 25, 2003 Never seen such a cake in Finland. Usually they're those unimaginative whipped cream ones with strawberry jam or some such inside. Marzipan ones are often brown and shaped like a pine cone. I eat them all if left unattended. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kashunowaka 300 Posted September 25, 2003 Never seen such a cake in Finland. Well, what do you know. By the way, I realised that I'm not sure whether "Scandinavian" should include Finland or not. (Feeling guilty...) Do you Finns feel that you should be included when I say Scandinavian, or are you as confused as I am? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kotoseiya Yuichi 3 Posted September 25, 2003 By the way, I realised that I'm not sure whether "Scandinavian" should include Finland or not. (Feeling guilty...) Not. But Nordic will do. (Blushing...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exil 301 Posted September 26, 2003 OK, then I'll bring you my favourite cake, Princess Cake: Yum. That looks delicious. (Licking lips...) I assume this cake is known in Finland too? I believe I've seen one of those somewhere. I must have tasted it, as my religious creed states that all cakes must be eaten. (Holiday feeling...) All this cake talk reminded me of the fact that I skipped lunch... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
