The Ceramic by Broste

Broste Copenhagen’s Nordic Sand plate is at the same time elegant as well as rustique.  Perfect for serving cookies and other treats for your December guests.

Recipe: Pepparkakor

We have added a recipe for the traditional Swedish cookies: Pepparkakor. They are spicy and will spread a lovely home-baking scent in your home. And they are perfect for Fika (Swedish coffee break).

The Pepparkakor (Ginger snaps)

In case the holiday season is too busy for home baking, we have added genuine Pepparkakor baked in Stockholm to this curation. This almond cookie is a deluxe version of the classic Pepparkakor.  Anna’s crispy ginger snaps have been baked since 1929 when sisters Anna and Emma Karlsson opened their home bakery in Stockholm. They’re delicious with coffee or tea. $

The Tea Towels by Södahl

Look at these stylish and practical tea towels. We wanted to add teatowels to the December box because, this time of year, we often prepare food for all sorts of occasions; this is indeed the holiday season. And while we want to give you a sense of Gamla Stan in Stockholm, we think these tea towels with a very classic stripe pattern are perfect. Plus, they’re made by renowned Scandinavian brand Södahl, so you know they’re made to last. $26

 

Whether drying dishes or wiping spills,the tea towels from Södahl are your little helpers.

The White Paper Star

Have you ever been to Stockholm in December? You cannot help to notice the big white paper stars in every window of the beautiful old Stockholm buildings (as you can see in the photo further down in this blog). It will forever remind me of the clear blue starry sky on a cold December night in Gamla Stan. Hang the Star in the window or on the wall and create a little Stockholm feeling this December. The star is made of recycled cotton paper. $32

 

The big white star will make a Scandinavian statement in any room
