Shrove Tuesday, Pancake day Or Mardi Gras! Call it whatever you like, on this day in Sweden we eat something called semlor. Traditionally it's a cardamom bread/bun filled with almond paste and whip cream. Nowadays it comes in any shapes and flavor you can imagine. This year the new version is a croissant, and off course I had to try it out. Try it yourself and se what you think of it.
