Kladdkakan has taken the Swedish people by storm and it’s commonly served for fika and parties. The cake is easy to love and it can be served with various sides such as cream, ice cream, meringues or berries, which gives a wonderful variety of both taste and texture.

This pastry has become extremely popular among the Swedish people and it is actually only in Sweden that you can find this particular sticky cake. In Sweden, it has received the stamp of being a national dessert and in 2008 a special day was instituted to pay attention to the dessert, namely Kladdkakans day, which falls every year on November 7.
