Valborg, fire pits, and picnic season in Sweden 🇸🇪
In this episode of Flour & Fika, I’m sharing what Scandinavians actually bring to a picnic or a casual grill — especially during Valborg.
Think:
kanelbullar, chokladbollar, classic Swedish cookies… and something chocolatey to share.
This is real Scandinavian fika outdoors — simple, cozy, a little chaotic, and always centered around something sweet.
