In Sweden during the summer period you find the famous Sandwich cake called "smörgåstårta". We usually serve the cake for celebrations like graduations or summer parties. You will find it in many different versions, so you most likely will be able to find your favorite version. Here’s my favorite homemade recipe of a luxurious Swedish sandwich cake (smörgåstårta) with salmon, shrimp, and boiled eggs. The cake is best to prepare the day before you are going to serve it, it both save you time and becomes better after a night in the fridg

This recipe is from Sweden
This is a different version of the classical Swedish cheese pie called ”Västerbotten paj” as it is not using the same cheese. The pie is best served cold as a side dish in a buffet. This is one of the main ingredients at the popular celebration in august called ”kräftskiva” when you eat a lot of seafood, but you can also serve it for eastern and midsummer celebrations.
The popular Swedish sandwich cake is more like a big sandwich than a cake. It is made from toast bread with various fillings in between the layers. It is nicely decorated to reflect the fillings. The most popular version is made with shrimps and fish. If you are not fond of seafood, this homemade sandwich cake with ham and chicken is a perfect choice instead.
A homemade classical Swedish shrimp salad also called skagenröra. This is a typical summer delight and taste best with fresh shrimps. It is mostly served as a starter on a toast, but also a favorite to baked potatoes, or as a filling in a baguette. The salad is named after the Danish town Skagen, furthest north in Denmark.
