In Sweden, October 4th is Cinnamon Bun day , aka. Kanelbullensdag! So basically every household is baking cinnamon buns, and every bakery is stocking up to be sold out by them by noon.

It’s Chinese new year! So it’s only befitting that I create something spectacularly Ammna style to fill my tummy up with on such an occasion! 😁 And since this has been on my mind for a while I thought I might as well get it done and see how it turns out. I have to say, deep frying a bao bun is probably THE BEST … Continue reading Fried Bao Buns with ice cream & sauce

This is my take on a strawberry shortcake – it’s a sweet scone topped with strawberry compote and mascarpone whip with fresh strawberries.
