So you may be wondering about the famous Danishes. They're everywhere! It seems every other storefront is displaying these scrumptious sweets. What we know as a Danish pastry is actually called Weinerbrod here which means "Viennese bread". This is because the art of making flaking pastry was learned from bakers in Vienna. Here the dough turns our more crossiant like and less sticky and sweet compared to those in the US. Cream puffs seem to be another popular option at the "konditorier" (patisseries). The Danes tend to eat freshly baked bread as opposed to package and store bought. Bakeries abound and offer a wide selection often alongside a wide array of sweet goodies. I happened upon a place that appears to be one of the best in the city as evidenced by it's ever present line. I'm looking forward to what new treats Chris and I will be savoring from there today!
