Danish desserts

So I am just going to shamelessly brag about all of the wonderful desserts I have had in Copenhagen. I've devoted this final week to having at least one amazing dessert a day.




Apple pie from a local traditional Danish restaurant. 



A cake called HC Hat from the famous Copenhagen bakery, Conditoriet La Glace. Starting from the bottom, it's chocolate cake, then caramel ganache, then caramel mouse. It was surprisingly light and very delicious. 



A cake called Summer Love from the Andersen bakery, another famous one in Copenhagen. It's a layer of almond cake, then strawberry and rhubarb compote, then a layer of white chocolate mouse. It was absolutely divine. 


A lemon meringue tart, also from the Andersen bakery.




Elderflower ice cream from Paradis. It was absolutely perfect. I am so in love with the elderflower flavor, which is really popular here in Denmark.  



Chocolate mouse with almonds from one of the food carts at Paper Island, which is a warehouse here in Copenhagen full of food trucks. It doesn't look like much, but it was extremely rich, and I don't think I could have eaten more than this.





Raspberry tart from Brioche Dorée in the glass markets, which is another place full of yummy food stands. It was delicious; a perfect balance between tart and sweet.



A flødeboller, which is a chocolate covered sort of meringue with a cookie on the bottom. They are very popular in Denmark. This one came from a chocolate shop and was of really good quality and very yummy. Also, it's coated in coconut, because coconut makes everything better.
