Why This Swedish Cardamom Bun Is Taking New York City By Storm | Line Around The Block
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ธ.ค. 2019
- Fabrique, one of Sweden's most popular bakeries, debuted a New York City outpost this past summer, and New Yorkers have been lining up to try its cardamom bun. While cardamom is a spice commonly used in Swedish baking, it's relatively uncommon for purveyors of sweet treats in the US. We went to Fabrique's Meatpacking District home, watched them bake the crispy, luscious cardamom bun, and tried to understand if the bun is worth the hype.

As a swede, it feels pretty weird that they refer to this café chain as being as iconic as beyoncé to swedes when in reality most of us haven’t heard of it lmao
I feel like hipsters in Stockholm know what it is😂😂😂
Yeah, I felt very weird hearing her say that at the beginning of the video.. I had never heard of the place before...
If you're from Stockholm you definitely know about it
@@kerstinnorberg8323 Yeah and if you go to another city you'll know the most popular one there, etc etc... Not quite the same as Beyonce reference that made it sound like all of Sweden knew about this place. ^^
@@andreaskarlsson5251 Ja du har rätt, förstår bara inte varför folk blir så triggade över att amerikaner inte är experter på svenska bagerier lol
Love how they all describe it as the most unique thing theyve ever tasted. Every swede thinks these r like the most basic bun you can eat
Jenny Cronblad Second only to cinnamon buns.
Harpiye 73 I love them both!
Nah, not really considering how many Swedes will get super maudlin and say ”grandmas kanelbullar/cinnamon buns or kardemummabullar/cardamom buns are the best thing in this world and I miss them so much”. When it really comes down to it the buns are what people go for when they only have that one option.
Jenny, you are SO right! I was just about to reply to this story that Cardamom is no secret to us Swedes!!
Also fun how they portray that Fabrique is the inventor of the cardemom-bun... Hahaha!
I'm Swedish and have never heard of Fabrique. Cardamom on the other hand is always in my buns, lots of Cardamom, butter, cinnamon and way to much sugar.
I haven't heard of Fabrique either. These buns are the only thing us swedes don't have to drool over when watching all of these new york - sweets.
Som hon nämnde; de finns i Sthlm så chansen är kanske större om du är stockholmare eller bor och jobbar där
Can’t have too much sugar;)
@@MrBurkistan I can tell you : yes, you can have too much sugar. You get a bit warmer and start to sweat a little, your stomach feels rock solid and you start to get nauseated and you run to the bathroom. On the toilet you promise yourself that you'll never going to eat that much dessert again and ask for the pain to go away. 🙃
Piluttatingeling Haha to each their own.
As a Swedish food- and baked goods lover, I'd never heard about Fabrique before this video and googling the word doesn't even put the café/bakery in the top 5 results, so kind of overselling the hype. But the love for cardamom buns in various forms cannot be overstated!
Finns ju på varenda gata i Stockholm.
@@SueyK94 , det har jag aldrig sett men har int ovanan att hänga i Stockholm. Så det är typ en "lokal" variant av Espresso House eller Condecco?
@@justbovel Ja precis. Lite finare, mer rustikt och bättre kvalité än Espresso house. Fabrique handlar mer om fika upplevelsen, espresso house känns mer amerikanskt med hög musik, snabba latte och folk som använder deras utrymme till att "studera" och blogga.
sant. bara för att man inte bor i stockholm
@@SueyK94 lived in Sthlm for 6 years while studying, and never noticed anything named fabrique. :(
"They say if you ask a swede if they know what Fabrique is, they'll ask you if you know who Beyoncé is".
Me, a swede: WTF is Fabrique??
I googled it and found something in Stockholm. Like seriously, does anyone outside of Stockholm know what Fabrique is?
I'm also from Sweden and I have never heard of fabrique either. I think it is a "Stockholm thing"
Fellow Swedish person here-no. Never had before I saw this video. In the small town where I live they have a bakery that makes cardamom buns that are probably at least as good though. Fabrique is more a ”Stockholm hipster thing”, not a ”phenomenon in Sweden” more than something that is very popular in the city of New York is ”an all-American phenomenon”. Kudos to Fabrique for being entrepreneurial (and quite a bit lucky too) and for their success in making cardamom buns a success abroad though👍
@@mortechrome ok? So is Stockholm a whole new country?? Like it's still swedish. Ik that the girl overreacted a lot but saying its a "Stockholm hipster thing" is also pretty overreacting like i've seen it outside Stockholm sooo I mean...?
Rihanna Blackebasket Stockholm is IN Sweden but it does not define ”Sweden”. It’s been a ”staple” in Stockholm perhaps(can’t say as I don’t live there), but definitely not in the rest of Sweden where the vast majority of the population lives. That’s what I meant. Most people in Sweden that lives OUTSIDE the Stockholm area never heard of this ”Fabrique” nor is it some sort of ”phenomenon” in Sweden since 11 years-cardamom buns similar to these are made in many, many bakeries in the country and have been since way before 2008. Yes, I was being a bit sarcastic, but I think you are overreacting slightly-perhaps because I said ”hipster”.
@@mortechrome Okay, i clearly understand what you are trying to say but if i ask you this instead: Do you self think that you said was overreacting because the last thing you said i actually didn't understood what you wanted, like if you only wanted a reason to have right or something because i didn't point out the one word "hipster" i writed down the whole sentence *YOU* writed so that you're saying i am overreacting doesn't even make any sense at all. But well well have a great day and God bless you ❤️
I’m from Stockholm and sure, i know what fabrique is and their stuff is good but let’s get one thing straight - they are not the bakery equivalent to Beyoncé.
Sant Beyoncé är värdelös :)

I like how they think Sweden is only Stockholm. Like that company has 19 shops in Sweden, all in Stockholm. I’ve never even heard of it

Jomblr Really? Haven’t recognized them at all..I should really bring attention to my surroundings lol

Most Muricans think the Netherlands are only Amsterdam; Czechia only Prague, and so on. Clueless bunch.
They should also eat Semla. They would go crazy for that as well
zoala001 and maybe they can spice the buns with some saffron for a change
@@RayasNegroOvejas Just don't. Just enjoy the cardamom taste that's also present in a semla.
@Peter Hedlöf I'm not sure that translation worked very well. 😂
Semlan would whoop the cardamom bun’s ass. It’s so good!
I remember watching a Swedish youtuber making Semla long ago.
I'm a Swede, never even heard of this company.
Sluta med sånna här kommentarer, ingen utanför sverige bryr sig. Är ju pinsamt.

“Where in New York can you get a fresh baked bun?” Ummm, I don’t know.... the hundreds of bakeries that sell fresh baked goods every day?
Im a swede and i’ve never heard of fabrique
probably cos people bake their own buns... easier than standing in line for one for 5 bucks a pop. Thats NY I guess...
Dalma Mirabal Homemade always the best

same here never ever i just thought wait is that a french style of saying fabrik?
Fake Svensk!!
Best memory from my childhood in Finland: Coming home from school and the whole house smelling like cardamom and cinnamon buns. My mom’s fresh hot cardamom buns with a cold glass of milk is like going to paradise.
Antti Kalpio Yess!!
Agreed!
Bruh this is the most basic bun in Sweden
Cinnamon bun is the most basic in my opinion. Cardamom can come in second place.
Typisk svensk: En kanelbulle, tack!
Typisk stockholmshipster: En kardemummabulle, tack!
@@GhostSamaritan va fan dem e ju goda får man inte gillarom
Kanelbullar är det vanligaste så länge du inte är en stockholmare.
Eller vad vet jag.
The swedes are the masters of fika and the cardamom-bulle is like Thanos: perfectly balanced.
... with just a hint of omnicidal sociopathy (it smells like cardamom and burned sugar).
Truly the gold standard at Midsommarafton, or any other holiday of note.

TheMrsar28
And cardamom ice cream, pears, etc, etc.
We know what it is, we just choose not to use it.
That's how I discovered it. An ancient recipe for Chai Tea.
oh definitely.
Fabrique is like.. “that expensive chain that isn’t that much better”
Sara Winberg Yep I bet my grandma makes them 10000x time better
Ica bought ones are probably just as good.
Power Spirit IF not vetter
@@PowerSpirit50 they really aren't. Anything that is made relatively fresh, meaning not reheated has a good chance of tasting better than them though
Everything in Stockholm is more expensive than a yacht but I understand what you mean.
As a lot of swedes have already mentioned. Fabrique isn’t a ”staple in sweden” it’s more of a stockholm thing. I have hears of fabrique but it aint something speciall it is just a regualar coffe shop for us there isn’t any hype about it
are you microchipped
@Indenhurst I wanted to hear from swedes how common the rfid chip is in sweden, news reports arent that accurate. no harm intended, just seeing how deep into the abyss weve wandered as a species
@Indenhurst oh I dont know, complete and total tracking and surveillance, the creation of a cashless society making you completely dependent on credit and digital currency making it very easy to completely control you. If you speak up against the oligarchs they can just shut your chip off. This has been in the works for many years and yes just because something seems cool and technologically advanced doesnt mean its designed to benefit you.
@Indenhurst you misunderstand, they're injecting rfid chips into peoples hands, not cards. and I'm sorry to tell you but every government is involved in the same corrupt agenda. Research UNs agenda 21, it's happening globally.
I’m a swede and I cringed so hard watching this
I thought the person that said every swede knows the bakery fabrique was cringe. It's such a big-city people thing to always assume everything they do the best so the rest of the world should always agree like what...? Like the bun itself isn't original by any means so why does she expect everyone to know the bakery I'm just.... OMG so cringe some big city people are in such a bubble they don't even realise.
Folke Westerberg Me too 😂😂😂 this is hilarious. It’s like if they would’ve done a montage with burgers from McDonald’s. The most basic thing for a Swede and yet they get so hyped up...of course not everyone is Swedish but come on.....a bun?
im finnish and cringed
Folke Westerberg that makes all of us 😬😬😑😑😬😐😶😶😶
you gåt a very nice name, I lajk de name folke actualli.
Cardamon is amazingly delicious..... until you accidentally bite into an entire cardamom pod.
Actually, when you bake this kind of buns you use crushed cardamom seeds so there are small bits of them and that is half of the pleasure to get that small hit of extra explosion of flavour. I am Swedish and have grown up with these buns and its the combination of the sweet bun and almost savoury flavour of the very very butter enhanced dough that is the big charm of it.
lmao im swedish and my girl eats cardamom bags as snacks but i guess she is kurdish so it might be popular in kurdistan too?
@@kojpetersson I've just tried a fresh cardamom bun with a cup of tea, it was so good! not at all overpowering with the cardamom :)
@@gtxlucid6630 😶 lolll that's a superpower
@@gtxlucid6630 wait did you mean buns or bags 😂
Pro tip for anyone reading: When you're brewing coffee crush one or two pods of Cardamom (depends on how much coffee you're making) and put it in with the coffee before you start brewing. That's a propper cuppa coffee for a cold day.
Also great steeped in cold brew with some cinnamon and orange peel.
Fabrique being as known as Beyonce, you kidding? As a Swede, I've never heard of it! Everything else in the video is true though. That's some real Swedish 'fika' they serve there for sure!
Im not surprised that the Stockholm people talking about Fabrique says all swedes know about the place, as they don’t know much about Sweden outside Stockholm. But the 8 million other swedes has no clue what this place is.
Sverige kretsar tydligen runt stockholm, allt utanför är irrelevant 🙄
As a Stockholmer I feel I need to point out that we don't have any idea what Fabrique is, either. It's not a Stockholm thing. They just made it up.
Sweden in a nutshell
No one knows what Fabrique is. The girl that said she loved it must've been hand picked from a casting.
Before video: This place doesnt have a 3 hour wait. Let's go 😀
After video release: Urgh 😒

Cardamom does have a very unique smell.. like a sweet clove wood smell.
@Gacha Panda Gorl lol
Good try.... But nothing like that😂
@@sarahkhan5723 well it is kind of difficult to explain but like most spices like tumeric or cumin its got a spicy pungent smell and also cardamom comes in different types.
@@tyrranicalt-rad6164 yes yes... I totally get it... . I was not serious... I know smells can't be explained
In Sweden cardamom is one of the Christmas spices together with clove and cinnamon (sometimes bitter orange too). We make mulled wine with these and suger (like a sweet and spicy Glühwein or sweet and spice mulled wine). Christmas tea would also be with these spices (not sure about Christmas soda and Christmas beer, think these are not with these spices)
I’m a swede and ive literally never heard of fabrique but cardemom is like cinnamon for us
We had a big blackberry bush in the garden of my childhood home. I often went and ate some berries while playing outside. One day I ate a berry and it tasted real strange and I realized I had eaten a green shield bug along with it.
Later in life I moved to the middle east and while on my first lunch date with my now husband, bit on a whole piece of cardamom. I immediately was taken back to that blackberry bush and ran to the bathroom convinced I had eaten another one of those bugs until he was able to convince me that it really just was the spice.
...so if ever you wonder how a green shield bug tastes like...there u have it lol
that came out of left field
I immediately knew you were talking about a stink bug. I am so very sorry that happened to you.... Not least because you probably don't enjoy cardamon all that much....
thompson after all these years somebody finally understands me lol
Those bugs are called bärfis ”berry fart” in Swedish.
@@juliawincentsoprano5744 no way 😂 how appropriate
How sponsored is this video on a scale of one to.. this video? I've never heard of this place. Currently living in Uppsala, the most student..ey city in Sweden, with cafés everywhere, yet no "Fabrique". Can't remember seeing one anywhere else in the country either. 😂
I had a better cardamom bun at Ofvandahls so you can save yourself the train ride to Stockholm
There’s a Fabrik location inside Uppsala Centralstation.
Cardamom is literally the most basic bun out there Americans are so shook by the flavour lol being a Swede is funny sometimes
Yeah no shit sherlock, there's no reason at all why Americans are shocked about the flavor. I wonder why there are different countries and different cultures ? Seems stupid when Americans don't even know about the most basic bun of sweden. Don't you think? Damn, I guess I should know the taste of all the dishes in England, philippines, canada, italy, morroco etc.. Even though I've never been to these countries before. Ps: not an American and not from sweden.
are you microchipped
In Denmark we also add some cake cream to cardamom butter it's so good, I am surprised that cardamom buns haven't spread more around the world considering Scandinavia is known for its pastries, this is the best one of then all.
Host: where else in nyc can you get a bun fresh out of the oven?"
A New Yorker: Everywhere. Do you think nyc has no bakeries with ovens? Do u think new yorkers get their bread trucked in from somewhere 3 days away? For the host to say that is actually ignorant and obnoxious.
I've only been to NYC about 3-4 times in my life and when she said I was like "uhhhh....everywhere".
That and other exaggerations like "If you ask a swede if they know what Fabrique is it's like asking who Beyonce is" makes me think this is a paid advertisement with the script written by some PR person prone to hyperbole.
@@jacob9327 its "instanews" syndrome. In an age where anybody can post video media online and get millions of hits for pennies in production costs.

Although cinnamon is my favourite, I love them all. I’m also very fortunate to live close to Swedish shop, Swedish cafe and Swedish church (with cafe on site 😉) with abundance of Scandi everything 😋🥰 and with Scandi on both sides of my family, I truly feel blessed 😇
Cardamom is used in nearly every home of India!!!
no wonder the smell.

@@HardcorePanda I know right? Smells amazing and sweet 😍
Thats like Ketchup and mayonnaise is used by every family that buys at Walmart! Kind of a global known fact.
Oh wow!
Cardamom is such a standard flavor in Swedish baking. Other than cardamom and cinnamon buns, we also have it in semlor and skorpor for example.
As a Swede I can confirm that these buns are top notch.
I made them for my family today and let's just say they won't ask me to make them again..cardamom is polarizing
Cow Commando that says more about your skills as a baker than the quality and appeal of cardamom as a spice
@@nilen Excuse me? cardamom tastes like eucalyptus/lavender/cleaning detergent, it's not to everybody's taste.
@@Archihuman .. are you 100% sure you had cardamom? 😂😂 Doesn't sound like it
@@EmA-oo9xk Yes sweetie, I'm sure. Cardamom really does taste a bit like eucalyptus, it's got a herbal, medicinal type of flavour, it smells like floor cleaner. It's a bit like lavender, rose water or star anis in that it works well in combination with other flavours as a background note. However, on its own, it can be a bit...pungent.
America in a nutshell: most Americans didn't even know what cardamom is.
Well, hopefully they've heard of pepper, salt and other exotic spices and they can start incorporating them in their cuisine. Step by step.
Hopefully you can become more pretentious.
Oh trust me, they've discovered salt
Haha le epic white peepo/Americans don’t know about spices hurr durr
Gods, shut up.
... and here's one more Swede who has NEVER heard of Fabrique. Olof Viktors is where it's at for me (I'm not sponsored).
Why would you be sponsored? XD
Her: Karlota and David Zeterstrome
Me as a swede: *dying of laughter*
IM SORRY I HAD TO OKOK
We add cardamom in every dessert like rice pudding, carrot dessert and in samolina pudding i really want to go there and taste the cardamom bread
My mother always used cardamom in her sweet rolls. We grew up in Minnesota, and although my mother is Norwegian and German, my father's mother was Swedish. That said, I never met anyone in Minnesota who made sweet rolls with cardamom. It has a wonderful fragrance when you grind it in a mortar and pestle!
I'm a swede, and what the heck is "Fabrique"? 🤨
Wait until you try the cardamom & cinnamon -mix buns with pearl-sugar on top.
I’m clearly not surprised most Americans didn’t know what cardamom was.
De St Well said! Hussein only knows about it because his mom adds it to his coffee every morning. Some foreigners just love trash talking Americans lol.
I associate cardamom with tea. If I saw that in a bakery that would definitely catch my attention and it would be my order of choice as I love that flavor. (from an American)
Well they deleted my comment, wow Great Insider!! He is right, that’s how people see Americans, don’t want that? Change it and work on ur country. And it’s definitely not the most culturally and racially nation... how ignorant are u? It’s more the nation with the most racism. I’m from Hamburg, the last time ur president came in to my town anarchy broke out, huge protest because no one wants him here. Germany has a racism history, but we changed our self and welcomed 1.5mio refugees last year. If u want that people see the us different, change it and vote for a better president and support antiracism.
Okay I get I made the whole US look dumb but it’s sad how as such a huge nation you suck at learning other stuff. Cardamom is literally in a whole lot of foods, deserts, and it has a whole of health benefits. So when she said most Americans I wasn’t surprised.
@@-zunaid2124 Idk why people are offended by your comment. I'm American and I laughed my ass off reading your comment.
Why are they acting like fabrique invented cardamom buns🤦♀️
Never heard of Fabrique.... But cardamom buns is the best
I LOVE the taste of cardamom. I'm in America, and have used that spice for about 50 some years now.. some Americans are familiar with it! I put it in many things I bake.
A local bakery in my town sells a cardamom bun, it looks quite different than these but I fell in love with it. So delicious and unique.
Her: Where else can you get a bun this fresh in New York?
No one: Ummm there is one on every block
I live on the flagship location od 'Orwashers' which was back in the day, where they also baked everything. That was when the family actually owned and operated it. I was in college and we had three other bakery's back then so you could choose what source you wanted for your waistline expansion, lol.
I ment the block of the flagship store.
Never heard of Fabrique. Would’ve guessed it’s something French.

OMG, I was just there with my daughter! We were talking about having a hot chocolate after walking about in the rain for hours, and voilà, we walked by this bakery with a bunch of lovely buns in the window. Love at first sight. Their coffee is from Brooklyn Roasting Company - to die for. There’s this cardamom-infused coffee from the Middle East that I fell in love about 20 yrs ago, so I knew the buns had to be good :). They were heavenly.
YASSS!! I discovered this on my trip to Sweden and now can't wait to have this in New York!
Never Heard of Fabrique
// Native Swede and Stockholm resident
Same lol
Cardamom is great. I've been saying it for a long time. It's a slightly different smell and taste but if you like the cinnamon, apple or pumpkin pie spices it is also so familiar you feel like you've known it all along.

@@mr.beancouldbreakmyspleen643 aaa im so glad I'm not the only one haha!
I was first introduced to cardamom, perhaps ten-ish(?) years ago, when mom made a carrot pudding.
Now, I prefer cardamom to cinnamon in almost all my baking, especially in spiced cakes and autumnal pies like apple and peach.
And I now know what my next pastry excursion will be....
When you discover cardamon you forget about cinnamon!
I’m swedish and I had never heard of ”Fabrique” until I saw this video.
These buns are so good. I miss them very much, I usually get a free bun everyday on my way to school from a baker. Good days.
I'm Swedish and I love cardamom buns, I also love cinnamon buns with "bumped" cardamom which I think are the best kind of cinnamon buns (and all Christmas stuff with cardamom as well like mulled wine (glögg), Christmas tea, etc.)
Cardamom is the "secret" ingredient in Froot Loops! cereal.
Word wow then I got to try this bun cuz I love fruit loops
Ty Silents the taste isn’t what you’d expect. It’s bold and savory. Nothing like a Fruit Loops cereal. But, do try it for the experience.
Good to know.
@@tysilents9143 it's sort of gingery and "green."
You do know that Swedes liwe outside Stockholm to?
I love these so much! It’s a shame they’re almost impossible to source in nyc. But it keeps me making them (and taking walks to fabrique)
They are so good. Brings back fond memories.
Wait till you try Cardamom coffee... I had a Turkish cardamom coffee and it was the best thing I've ever had
Turkish is just the brewing method. It’s actually Arab coffee, though.
I bought cardamom coffee when I was in Dubai, brought it back as a gift for my mom.
Wow, really? Can we make it at home? I gotta try that
Yes! Coffee with Rose Water and Cardamom is amazing!
Just make sure not to overkill. A hint of cardamom enhances the brew, but cardamom soup is undrinkable.
When you finally can test the food in food insider cause you live in the area.
We used to have the "Andersonville Coffeecake" out of the Swedish Bakery in Chicago, before it closed. Loaded with cardamom (and almond).
Never heard of Fabrique and I’m Swedish, haven’t lived in Sthlm for several years though🤷🏼♀️ But I’m glad the bun is getting recognized because it’s a staple when we go to ”Fika”
kanelbulle
I live in Sweden. People here love the cinnamon bun. They have a special day just for cinnamon buns ”kanelbullens dag” (the day of the cinnamon bun).
Cinnamon and Cardamom are two different spices 👌
@@alpha_4050 Cardamom buns are often called cinnamon buns in sweden becuase they also contain cinnamon. And ginger snaps are called pepper cookies but don't contain any pepper. It's to confuse the american spies I believe ;-)
@@marvinmerten7112 This is just not true lol. Cinnamon and cardamom buns are two different types of buns, definitely not the same thing.
@@JHNJPOD I have at least never had a cinnamon bun in sweden without cardemom in it, and they are historically the same pastry. Just different amounts of spices depending on what people perferred. Also american cinnamon buns don't typically have cardamom. But sure today you can go into a bakery and get a bun without cinnamon just cardamon but it's quite a new phenomenon. Also the first comment refered to cinnamonbun day which has more or less become whateverbun day..
That Dominique Ansel comment tho... I scoffed when he said that. I'm going there right now to see if he's right 😏
American living in Stockholm here. Fabrique is everywhere here and it is pretty fantastic. Totally understand the Swedish reaction of "these aren't even that great" though, as the higher end bakeries here make stuff that's out of this world. The first time I had a semla from Lillebrors, I found it other-worldly.
I’m from Sweden, Stockholm to be exact and I think everyone knows what fabrique is. It’s kinda what you’d get when your grandma is taking you out to bye some buns on your birthday. Because a proper swedish ”kardemumma” bun can cost around 5-6 dollars in Stockholm, so you don’t eat them very often.🤩
Wait what??? freaking 5 dollars each??? Ok im going to smile when I pick some up for 0,5$ each at the store here in Sweden.
It's in New York, everything is up x5 or x10 there for anything
The first thought that crossed my swedish mind: why the fancy french spelling? 🤔 It should be FABRIK! 🤷♀️
are you microchipped
As a Dutch person visiting my brother in Sweden regularly I must confess I have become addicted to these things.
Since living in Stockholm, getting a cardamon bun from Fabric is a weekend rutin I never get tired of😍
I think they mean ”if you ask a STOCKHOLMER”
Sweden is a long country, I’ve eaten kardemum buns but I’ve never heard of this fabrique café
Pro tip, best thing you can do with this bun is take it home and have it with some homemade Indian chai. Cardamom in the chai + cardamom in the bun = 😋
Cardamom is a spice most popular in Middle East, India, Turkey... used in sweet and savory dishes. Scandinavian countries learned about it later a long with Saffron and started making saffron and Cardamom buns. I’ve seen it used in Sweden, Denmark and In Norway.
When i lived and worked in Stockholm I used to buy myself a big cardamom bun every Friday at Bröd och Salt. Never had one from fabrique. Cardamom buns are really popular, quite basic, cardamom is used in a lot of Swedish baking, Selma is a good example, very Swedish and delicious! Try it 👌🏻
As a swede I can confirm that litteraly noone here has ever heard of this chain
Introduce Americans to Swedish fika: cinnamon buns, dammsugare, semla, delicatoboll, etc.
aflex don’t forget the småkakor, typ hallongrotta eller nått
Cardamom rolls YUM!! I live by a Swedish Bakery in my state and town and they make award winning pastries, they are all amazing!!
I'm from Sweden myself and I just love baking these!
Care to share your recipe?
Cardamom buns - and cinnamon buns - are sold _everywhere_ in Sweden. As long as they are handmade from scratch by a bakery (or homemade), they’re almost always great, and we eat lots of them.
We do take our ”Fika” seriously here. ☕️🧁🍰☕️🍪🍩☕️
Btw, I had never heard of Fabrique either. So, no. Not that iconic...
5 dollars each? Y'all are getting ripped off.
Believe the hype. They're delicious. The café is a great little spot, and the staff is wonderful too.
The bread is so good. Too often to eat. Just watching the video is great too. 🤤🤤🤤
Love cardamom 😍 its also widely used in south asian cooking😍
It's true. Even rendang beef also uses cardamom
10 years ago I tried Pulla and I love it. I can just guess that this cardamom bun Tastes similar
Talking about the finnish pulla? Its essentually the same, just theres cinnamon in that one and not as much cardemom in the filling or on top
Pulla is something very different in Swedish... 😅😂😂
@@violett000 okej så jag är finlandssvensk (alltså, svenska är mitt modersmål) men jag kan inte komma på vad det skulle vara?
Oh I’m Swedish and I live in Stockholm and every time I go home from school I always see Fabrique but I wouldn’t say that Fabrique is the most popular place to go to.
That's my sister baking! I'm really proud of her.
Basic stuff! Make those myself every week, like in most Swedish families! Greetings from...yeah, you guessed right....SWEDEN!❤️⭐️🇸🇪
Cecilia Löfgren haven’t met any Swedish family that bakes cardamom bun ever. People get their pastries in Presbyrån.
@@wp3488 making your own is a tradition, but..... Faster to just buy lol
My south asian self saw "cardamom" and clicked immediately
I grew up in a Norwegian family. We had cardamom buns all the time!
i moved to sweden 6 years ago and cardamom buns are the best thing about this country, but this is not the only way you can make them
I have NEVER heard about “fabriqué »
Asking a swede what cardamom is - is like asking what salt and pepper is
Swedes loves cardamom
Cardemom buns och cinnamon buns are just ordinary staple food in Sweden. I love them both, but cardamom is my favourite. You can get them everywhere. Fabrique is just one of many bakeries that make them. I am glad to see that they are so popular outside Sweden.
Fika is a must for a Swede
I've never seen such giant mixers before. Awesome.
