In Denmark we normally don't leave cookies out for father Christmas, but leave out risengrød (rice porridge) with cinnamon sugar and butter on top, for the nisse (the old Norse elf)
Well yea, but they are advertised a lot more during christmas and are often put in the christmas candy section at the grocery store. So i guess a lot of people would associate them with christmas.
I was so excited to see you trying danish sweets! I am a dane too and I have been wanting to send you something from Denmark too, but I just never got to it. So I just wanted to say that Cille did such a great job selecting these things for you as they are really common during Christmas in Denmark. So Cille, if you read this: Great job! 👍🏻😘 Kate, you said, that the crisps would be great with a dip and a lot of people actually use the gravy made out of the juices from the roasted duck or pork to dip the crisps in. Some also saves the gravy for later in the fridge and then microwave it when they want crisps with dip during the holidays. We often drink the beer with a meal called risengrød (a kind of porridge (made with rice instead of oats, but still warm) sprinkled with cinnamon, sugar and a teaspoon of butter)). Even kids get it too. That is also what we put out for Father Christmas (which we, by the way, call Julemanden - it translates to The Christmas Man). Alex, you were totally spot on with the song about Toms Karameller! 👍🏻😍😂 Merry Christmas, Kate and Alex! 🎅🏻🎁🎄 Keep up your amazing job making these videos for us! ❤️❤️❤️ I love your channel! 😍
Hey! I am so pleased to hear you were super excited for this one and that you agree with the selection of goodies Cille sent us! Ahh i wondered if they did that with the juices and the crisps. Mmm yum! That dish sounds delicious! Merry Christmas to you too. Thank you for watching ❤️❤️
Nogle gange er det også bare umugligt at finde meny chips fordi de bliver efterspurgt så meget at de også bliver udsolgt fra lagret inden de kommer på hylderne.
We're able to get the vanilla danish butter cookies here at Christmas time. They're my youngest sons favorite cookies and he always gets a big tin of them on his birthday. Thank you as always for brightening my day
The typical Danish Christmas dinner contains Duck, Roasted Pork Belly, Brown gravy made from the Duck or the Roasted Pork Belly, Red Cabbage, White Cabbage, Crisp's, Regular Potatoes, and Caramelised Potatoes. (fun fact, Danish people love to dip the crisp into the gravy.)
Im from Denmark 🇩🇰 and everyone i know have chips to dip in the gravy 🤤🤤 and i personally LOOOOVE the carmelist potatoes the most, with the roasted pork or duck 😍 Happy holidays from Fyn - Denmark 🎄🇩🇰
In Sweden the main part of the Christmas dinner is the ham. We also have meatballs, tiny sausages, a special potato gratin, picked herring, smoked lox and a lot more! Also, we leave porridge for Father Christmas/Santa instead of cookies.
Claralundqvist - I just read your comment after I made mine. Am I right about the potato dish name ? The 1 that has the anchovies and so yummy ? I also absolutely loved the cabbage..it was a wonderful Christmas 🎄 experience when we all were in Sweden 🇸🇪 that year. Also it seemed everyone for the most part ate Christmas Eve. 🎄😊
Lynda Bond Hi! I just found your comment. You are right, it’s called “Janssons frestelse”! Where are you from and how come you celebrated Christmas here in Sweden? 😊 Yeah, we all celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve. 🎄
The Curré cookies remind me of Royal Dansk. It's a brand of Danish cookies that we have in the US which is a very popular holiday gift (a lot of companies send Royal Dansk tins out as gifts for their clients/customers). My mom still has a Royal Dansk tin where she keeps her sewing supplies.
You both get me through my days and make them better 💖 ive been in hospital for 1 month i had majour brain surgery and as soon as i was out i have been catching up on your uploads! Love to you both and wishing you an amazing Christmas and new year!
Hey Keely, so sorry to hear you have been in the hospital for a month. I really hope your surgery went well and we wish you a speedy recovery. Merry Christmas to you and your family
Hey! It went well I was meant to come out after christmas but im getting on with it and recovering really well so I was allowed home on a drip which means i can have Christmas with the family! So greatful to be home for Christmas! I had a 5% chance of living and the docs and surgeons cant believe i survived because i had so little chance so they are so proud of me and how far i've come in so litttle time! They had to shave my hair all the way round but luckily they did it in a place where a headband can cover it! Hope you both and your family have an amazing Christmas too! 💖
I am also from Denmark 🇩🇰 Super box, Cille 👍 And Alex, you did a good job pronuncing the Danish words 😊 Øl ( beer) was spot on 😉 And Kate, the hat with a bit of Leo 😍 Merry Christmas 🌟
Amazing video. The look on Alex's face when you said the beer was non alcoholic was so funny. Also when Alex give you the biscuit from his lip was funny too. Merry Christmas Alex and Kate and also to your family and your loved ones too ❄🎅❄🎄❄
I really just want to wish you both a very Merry Christmas and thank you both for such positive and fun videos this year. You are lovely young people! Love 💘
Thank you so much Carrie. We are so pleased you have been enjoying our videos this year thank you for your kind words they really mean a lot. We wish you a very Merry Christmas too
I am so happy I came across your channel! I am a Dane, and the biggest anglophile! You have no idea! I also love all the candy in the video ☺️very interesting to see your views on the candy ☺️
That is a great selection of Danish treats !! So sweet of Cilli to send it for your Christmas present ! In California there is a wonderful Danish Village called Solvang . We LOVE to shop and eat there !! They have a ton of bakeries. And the pastries are delicious. I am part Danish , so I loved getting a bit educated about Danish heritage foods . I LOVE the animal print Santa 🎅🏼 hat SO much ! Merry Christmas to all !! 🎄 ⭐️ 🥧
We definitely loved trying this selection :D So lovely of her. Oh wow, thats awesome. Mmm i bet they are so delicious. So pleased you enjoyed watching this one! Must have been more interesting as you are part Danish :D Merry Christmas to you too!
Alex's face when Kate said beer...non alcoholic beer...lol..I was rolling..love y'all!!!♡♡♡ P.s that new hat matches that sweater really good Kate and it looks good on you. Alex's hat is awesome...I love it!
Oh that look when the beer was non-alcoholic! I do like my beer larger btw! (Check drop box) I just loved the Danish box - soooo Christmassy. And the Guantanamera reference blew me away. Merry Christmas guys.
I don't know why so many of my fellow Danes thinks that our Christmas beer is alcohol free. KB hvidtøl is at 1.7% and most of our other hvidtøl is just under 2%.
We have those Danish cookies (biscuits) here and I thought they were just "fake" as they are so cheap. Yep, says product of Denmark. People seem to have them out a lot at Christmas. I like the tin. It has a nice Christmas scene on it.
Good video and I really like the Santa hat with the animal print. It reminds me of Christmas in Africa. Have a good week and I can't believe Christmas is less than 2 weeks away. Yikes! I haven't bought 1 gift yet. Hope everyone else is better prepared than me.
Thank you Brandon! The hat was awesome, wasn't it! I know!! Where on earth has that time gone? I'm not doing too well with the presents so far either. Hopefully, we can both get them sorted soon. xD
Nice with Danish treats!❤️ And yeah, you definitely slaughtered the language😅 I'm Swedish and we also have Brända mandlar (burned almonds), you should really try some fresh out the pan, they're even more delicious 😋! A tip for opening the bags with candies; they often have a cut in the upper left corner that you rip open vertically down the left side of the bag😊
I was thinking during this whole video ''where have I seen that elf hat before?'' And my son has the same one that he wears during going to school and after coming home to keep his ears warm :D love ur videos, merry Christmas to u both btw!! Xxx
Being so hot in Australia, if my family do lunch or dinner for Christmas it's normally cold stuff like ham off the bone and other cold meats, salads and cold desserts like trifle and pavlova etc. Though my husband's family is from Slovakia, so every year on Christmas Eve they do chicken schnitzels, potato salad and a sort of sausage and sauerkraut soup which I personally don't have but love the schnitzels!
I will have to one day experience a hot Christmas! Those desserts are some of my faves so i'm sure I would fit in well there 😀 Oh wow, how cool. I love hearing other family traditions
Im from Denmark and In Denmark almost everyone eats crisps at Christmas and we dip them in sauce, and the hat is not a father Christmas hat, it's what we call a (nissehue), a (nisse) is like a house alf that we associate with Christmas, I'm pretty sure its native to Scandinavia in general, it's said to help out the farmers and it lives in the attic, and it hides from people, some people gives it rice pudding at Christmas by putting it in the attic, to make it happy and so it keeps helping on the farm
Yay finally some Danish stuff! I've offered sending you some before, but due to our taxes here, candy is very expensive. In the UK you get five chocolate bars for the price of one in Denmark
totally agree with your Danish friend - you brighten up peoples lives! One thing has changed with Christmas turkey - what happened to brown meat? It's all gone pale! Hope you got treats for Bob & Penny! What are you using to translate food labels? I've been to Copenhagen - great place. Guantanemera is genuinely a massive hit Kate! Mark from Bournemouth
You are too kind, thank you Mark! Bob & Penny get lots of treats and presents at Christmas. I think they are looking forward to it too! Often things are also written in English or we can use google translate :D
duck and roasted pork is a Christmas tradition i all of denmark! and the chips is for the gravy :D and dronning mandler means queen almonds. thanks for all your videos! love em
I’m late again. You both are looking awesome and Kate your rocking that new Santa hat she sent. I’ve spent a Christmas 🎄 in Sweden 🇸🇪 and it seems there are a lot of similarities to the Danes. We had a julbord. A table full of lots of meats including sausages, ham, salmon and Swedish meatballs. I wonder if the Danes do the same. I loved a potato dish called janssons I think it’s called. Great box ! Always enjoy watching you both so much. You do make people feel happy 😃. 🎄👍💕😊
No worries Lynda! Thank you for still watching though. Hehe thank you, I was loving the animal print. That's so cool. Yes I wonder. Thank you so much Lynda, so lovely of you to say that!
When you are Danish watching this like- OMG a Big country noticed us😂 and er have the BEST Christmas snacks🤩👌 the Way you say Cille is Cil-Lah like almost 👌
Where do you live ? That sounds super fancy ! Do you put the fancy little trim on the top of your crown roast ? I have only had it once, a friend made one for a dinner party . Merry Christmas blessings from California .🎸 🎄 🥁 🎅🏼
If those almonds are the same as some of them that we have here in the USA, they're sooooooo good!! The companies I have bought them from also have cashews, pecans, etc. 😋😋
3:11 The in Christmastime here in Denmark 🇩🇰, they are not only pork 🐖🐷 and ducks 🦆, but also goose too sometimes because goose’s is actually very expensive here in Denmark 🇩🇰 🙂😎✌️
Ofc some here eat Turkey too at christmas.. in my Family the Christmas table always holds a stuffed Turkey, a sizable pork roast and the traditional Danish Christmas sausage, besides what we call the 3 types of potatos, the white boiled potato, the caramel potatos made on a frying pan with loads of sugar and the chips/crisps. The chips/crisps are a MUST HAVE to get all the gravy off the plate, so i would guess that maybe 80% of ethnic danes have some form of chips/crisps at Christmas and if you go all in, you give them 5 mins in a heated oven before serving. Regarding the marcipan/marzipan, Danish Marcipan/marzipan is primarily made from Almonds, while foreign marcipan/marzipan (here at least) often is made by primarily Apricot seeds (its cheaper), in denmark real marcipan has a min. amount of almonds it has to contain to be able to use the name marcipan/marzipan.
It’s in every Danes Christmas... me cousin is from Essex and I’m trying to get her over for a proper Danish Christmas... the beer is also used to make øllebrød which is rye bread and beer and brown sugar...
Alex, you pronounce some of the words so good! And Kate chose to pronounce some of the most difficult words 😂 But are doing a great job, it's a difficult language 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Regarding the French potatoes, yes, the bag is bigger, but if you darken the bag, then there is a lot of air in it, which will also be in the maxi bag and not so much more than the other bag. so yes you don't get much for the money. Greetings Denmark
People have spiral sliced ham, prime rib or crown of pork often for dinner unless they are Italian and then they do the feast of 7 fishes. Christmas dinner is more varied and usually by choice or tradition.
@@ThisWithThem the US is so huge we have a lot of traditional Christmas foods, ham is standard but I'm Cuban so we cook an entire pig for Christmas. It's varied but it seems to be some kind of pork product here lol.
Another great video to watch but I'm on my own in hospital not with my friends eating snacks like normal but this will keep me busy for now hope you both have very Merry Christmas and fantastic new year xx
The go to christmas dinner in my family has always been Pork Roast with gravy, with the addition of crisps of course. And as far as I know, moooost people will have crisps at the table for christmas.
In Denmark we normally don't leave cookies out for father Christmas, but leave out risengrød (rice porridge) with cinnamon sugar and butter on top, for the nisse (the old Norse elf)
Yeah in sweden we do that as well :)
@C J Says who?
Nisser also known as the creepy trolls that life in our attics
@C J "Nisser" is the spawn of satan. So nothing weird to see here just move along
C J It looks like your saltyness wasn’t washed either
Chips dipped in gravy 👏 Merry Christmas to everyone reading this 🎄 Greetings from Greenland 🇬🇱🇩🇰

Danish nachos
Wait I don’t wanna sound dumb but does Greenland have wifi?!?
Yinki Winkey The wifi comes from the mountains, actually. (I am joking)

The “guldkarameller” and the “p-tærter” are actually not christmas candy, but just normal candy😂
Well yea, but they are advertised a lot more during christmas and are often put in the christmas candy section at the grocery store. So i guess a lot of people would associate them with christmas.
Du har helt ret
@@rasmuskjaerpoulsen No they are not.
@@homerboy91 they totally are though. atleast guld karameller are
Their kinda some ppl eat Them on Christmas and some ppl dont
i think that guy would love a danish christmas dinner :D
Yeah he would!!
Yup that is so true
It’s so funny to hear them talk danish
Yeah really
But i have see a really funny vidio were japanish guys are taisting danish candy
im from Greenland and, YEAH!!! i dont like the way how they talk in Danish. They're miss pronouns them too much
I was so excited to see you trying danish sweets! I am a dane too and I have been wanting to send you something from Denmark too, but I just never got to it.

Hey! I am so pleased to hear you were super excited for this one and that you agree with the selection of goodies Cille sent us!
Ahh i wondered if they did that with the juices and the crisps.
Mmm yum! That dish sounds delicious!
Merry Christmas to you too. Thank you for watching ❤️❤️
K
Jeg føler lidt at 80 procent af dem der ser videoen er danske
Adam Kirchner-Jacobsen så meget aha
Ja
Tror faktisk mere det er 98%😂
ja
Ja
Listening to you singing toms karameller was the highlight. Perfect rendition too.
Alex's face when Kate said nonalcoholic beer was priceless! I cracked up. 😂
hahaha
Right ?! If there was a thought bubble, it would read, "Come again."
But it's actually not non-alcoholic.. Kinda.. It's 1.7%, so turn that frown upside down!
As far as I know it's very common to have the type of crisps from Kims at the Christmas dinner, and they are sooo good to dip in the gravy
Nogle gange er det også bare umugligt at finde meny chips fordi de bliver efterspurgt så meget at de også bliver udsolgt fra lagret inden de kommer på hylderne.
I’m from Denmark and it is a Christmas tradition to eat chips at the Christmas table ☺️
Ahhh Nogle gør🙂
Crisps ;) Det er ikke USA vi snakker om :P
@@Boritzzz hvad F mener du med crisps? xD hvem kalder dem det?
dank degl det gør de i storbritanien🇬🇧
@@Boritzzz men det er jo ikke UK vi snakker om :P
Most families I know in Denmark have crisps at Chrismas. Mostly dipped in the gravy/sauce.
We're able to get the vanilla danish butter cookies here at Christmas time. They're my youngest sons favorite cookies and he always gets a big tin of them on his birthday. Thank you as always for brightening my day
Ahh lucky! They are so delicious 😋💗
Ahahaha. The guy literally destroyed that bag of crisps throughout the video :D
Loved it!

Where do you live ? That sounds super fancy ! Do you put the fancy little trim on the top of your crown roast ? I have only had it once, a friend made one for a dinner party . Merry Christmas blessings from California .🎸 🎄 🥁 🎅🏼
@@marycook1644 no fancy trim...but we do stuff it with a classic thyme and onion bread stuffing.
Erin O'Neill Sounds delightful ! 👩🏻🍳
Just recently discovered your channel. LOVE it. I've been binge watching all the videos. ♥️
I love your Christmas boxes
Yay thanks Gray :D
24:16 it's french Nougat, the best kind of Nougat!
If those almonds are the same as some of them that we have here in the USA, they're sooooooo good!! The companies I have bought them from also have cashews, pecans, etc. 😋😋
3:11 The in Christmastime here in Denmark 🇩🇰, they are not only pork 🐖🐷 and ducks 🦆, but also goose too sometimes because goose’s is actually very expensive here in Denmark 🇩🇰 🙂😎✌️
Happy holidays, Kate and Alex.
Happy holidays to you too 🎄
Ofc some here eat Turkey too at christmas.. in my Family the Christmas table always holds a stuffed Turkey, a sizable pork roast and the traditional Danish Christmas sausage, besides what we call the 3 types of potatos, the white boiled potato, the caramel potatos made on a frying pan with loads of sugar and the chips/crisps. The chips/crisps are a MUST HAVE to get all the gravy off the plate, so i would guess that maybe 80% of ethnic danes have some form of chips/crisps at Christmas and if you go all in, you give them 5 mins in a heated oven before serving. Regarding the marcipan/marzipan, Danish Marcipan/marzipan is primarily made from Almonds, while foreign marcipan/marzipan (here at least) often is made by primarily Apricot seeds (its cheaper), in denmark real marcipan has a min. amount of almonds it has to contain to be able to use the name marcipan/marzipan.
always look forward too these video's
Yaay thank you Jerrica :)
Loved watching this, looks delicious!
This is very funny to listen to you guys speak Danisk (am form Denmark)
Always so hot in Australia on Christmas day (normally over 40 degrees) so it's always a bbq then head to the beach for the arvo xx
Oh wow!!! That is so hot. I'll definitely have to experience a hot Christmas one day! Sounds like such a lovely day xx
It’s in every Danes Christmas... me cousin is from Essex and I’m trying to get her over for a proper Danish Christmas... the beer is also used to make øllebrød which is rye bread and beer and brown sugar...
Alex, you pronounce some of the words so good!
And Kate chose to pronounce some of the most difficult words 😂
But are doing a great job, it's a difficult language 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Regarding the French potatoes, yes, the bag is bigger, but if you darken the bag, then there is a lot of air in it, which will also be in the maxi bag and not so much more than the other bag.
so yes you don't get much for the money.
Greetings Denmark
in norway, many pplz also have crisps on the christmas table, but before the main dinner as an apertif :D
I died laughing when you started singing Tom's Karameller, an old school ad from the 90's

Hey, guys! I'd like to know what kind of lighting setup do you usually use? It's really pretty, I just love it. Congrats on the amazing videos 🥰
Danish Sweets are interesting, everything is about cinnamon, and ginger at this time of the Year 😘😘
I am glad you liked the candy from my home
the burnt almonds is specially good if you eat them when they are warm direct from the frying pan. :)
Merry Christmas to you both!
Merry Christmas to you too 🎄♥️
In the States we just had a turkey dinner for Thanksgiving so a lot of people make a ham for Christmas.
Ahh thats interesting! Probably fed up of Turkey by then!
People have spiral sliced ham, prime rib or crown of pork often for dinner unless they are Italian and then they do the feast of 7 fishes. Christmas dinner is more varied and usually by choice or tradition.
@@ThisWithThem the US is so huge we have a lot of traditional Christmas foods, ham is standard but I'm Cuban so we cook an entire pig for Christmas. It's varied but it seems to be some kind of pork product here lol.
now have the recipes for some of the Christmas cookies so just getting started can make your kitchen vidio when you make them
Thank you for those Benny :D

The go to christmas dinner in my family has always been Pork Roast with gravy, with the addition of crisps of course. And as far as I know, moooost people will have crisps at the table for christmas.
Absolutely no one I know has chips/crisps with their Christmas dinner.
Kender fandme heller ikke nogen der spiser Pommes Frites til juleaften. Der ville også være underligt
