When I met my youngest daughter a few days ago at the Zoo, she greeted me with a box of these yummy Scandinavian Rosettes that she had bought at a fairly recent Scandinavian Christmas Fair. We used to buy these many years ago. A lovely surprise and treat! "Rosettes are a thin, cookie-like deep-fried pastry of Scandinavian origin. They are traditionally made during Christmas time. Rosettes are made using intricately designed irons. The iron is heated to a very high temperature in oil, dipped into the batter, then re-immersed in the hot oil to create a crisp shell around the metal. The iron is immediately removed and the rosette is separated from the iron. Usually, the edges of the rosette are dipped into frosting or sugar. Rosette recipes are popular in the United States among families with Scandinavian ancestry." From Wikipedia.

This was taken on 26th November 2009, when I met my youngest daughter to spend a few hours at the Calgary Zoo. She greeted me with a box of these yummy Scandinavian Rosettes that she had bought at a fairly recent Scandinavian Christmas Fair. They simply melt in your mouth : ) We used to buy these many years ago. A lovely surprise and treat! This image shows the underside.

Seemed an appropriate day to post a photo of this yummy Rosette (Scandinavian). We are in the middle of a bad winter snow storm today, being advised not to go out unless absolutely necessary. My car is plugged in and I don't plan on going anywhere tomorrow! "Rosettes are a thin, cookie-like deep-fried pastry of Scandinavian origin. They are traditionally made during Christmas time.
