01 / ABOUT THE DISH

About the dish

Kliņģeris is a traditional birthday cake shaped into a large pretzel. It can also be served on similar festive occasions or as a central piece in a dessert smorgasbord. The big pretzel is made with flour, butter, eggs, heavy cream, sugar, yeast, water, saffron, lemon and orange zest, cardamom, and raisins. Before baking, the dough is brushed with beaten eggs and sprinkled with almonds. After it has been baked, kliņģeris is often dusted with powdered sugar and decorated with bows, candies, or birthday candles. It is recommended to enjoy the cake while it is still warm and pair it with butter or jam.
