Hallon Grotta
Almond Brownie
Kardemumma Bulle

Chokladboll
With perhaps a dozen storefronts speckled around Stockholm it was during a full day of eating and sightseeing that a stop was made at Fabrique, the fact that it is a chain not nearly as damning as such things are in America since each Bakery employs an actual Baker to come in and prepare items from good ingredients with proper technique daily.
Selecting this particular Fabrique amongst the others purely out of convenience, three additional Bageris and Konditoris found along a path culminating at Fotografiska, it was shortly after entering that a young lady emerged from the back to assist with an order, the fact that everything looks better than most “Artisan” Bakeries back home because they are, even the porcelain plates and seating options detail oriented.
Focusing on traditional Fika for the most part, a few novel items additionally ordered and rarely seen across two-dozen Bakeries stretching from the Capital to Järvsö, Gavle and Åre, it was with the Cardamom Bun falling short of a world-class version at Petrus that attention switched to a similar Roll topped with Walnuts, both these and Almonds studding a dense Chocolate Brownie upgrading their base by way of Salt and subtle smokiness.
Next sampling a Cookie listed as Hallon Grotta, essentially a thick Shortbread Thumbprint filled by sticky Raspberry Jam, it was once again that Chokladboll rounded things out, this one a little more ‘chalky’ than most as a result of too little Oats and Coconut, though the Chocolate was quite Dark and pleasant with a slightly fruity linger.
