Shrove Tuesday or Fettisdagen in Swedish

Is an old Christian tradition. Day falls 47dagar before Easter and is usually Tuesday after Shrove Sunday. The name Shrove Tuesday is formed from the word "fat" (fet in Swedish) and "Tuesday" (tisdag in Swedish), where bold refers to all the good food that you used to eat on Shrove Tuesday.
According to tradition, there were almost only buns to eat during Lent. To eke out the food, people began to make holes in the buns and put in lots of different goodies. This resulted in the development of a bun with whipped cream and almond paste in.

Have a good Shrove Tuesday and take the opportunity to taste a bun!
