Sju sorters kakor is a Swedish phrase that translates to seven kinds of cookies . It's a tradition deeply rooted in Swedish culture, particularly when it comes to coffee gatherings known as fika . The tradition goes back several generations when it was believed to be courteous and almost expected to offer at least seven types of cookies (among them drömmar , hallongrotta , brysselkex , etc.) when you had guests over for coffee. Offering fewer might be perceived as impolite or an indication of not being well-prepared for guests. Today, while many might not strictly adhere to the rule of seven, the phrase remains a popular representation of Swedish hospitality. Over the years, the concept has expanded from cookies to cakes and pastries. The phrase also became the title of a popular Swedish baking book first published in the 1940s. "Sju sorters kakor" was a compilation of recipes gathered from a nationwide contest, and the book has been reprinted numerous times since, becoming something of a staple in Swedish kitchens.
