"Happiness is not a goal, if not a way of living. Sign up!"
There are times that it is worth going to the other side of the city where we are to get to know a new bakery, a famed restaurant or just out of pure curiosity.
The inspiration for this recipe I have on one of these visits to Danish pastry. These cinnamon buns they are the quintessence of Scandinavia and you will find countless variants in Norway, Denmark, Sweden and Finland. This that I bring today is ideal in a breakfast, brunch or lunch. Comes directly from Denmark fresh, fresh... do you want?. As we go!
