Swedish Vacuum Cleaners Everywhere


Now Swedish vacuum cleaners will conquer the world. Ikea will start selling something that is very typical Swedish world wide, the little green "vacuum cleaners" one of the most classical coffee cakes in Sweden.

Know and loved by all old ladies going for a cup of coffee in the afternoon. In Swedish they are called punchrulle (punch roll) or dammsugare (vacuum cleaner). Have a bite and you are hooked!

...came across some here in San Diego, California. Sooooooo yummy, indeed!
Can you please explain why it's called "vacuum cleaner"?

You don't want to know :-) but from my answer you might guess.. No, don't worry it's safe to eat them, they're delicious!

Per my Swedish daughter-in-law: they look like the original hoover vaccum cleaner. We made them from scratch this Christmas. They were better than the ones from Ikea or the ones I ate in Sweden!
