Boller

Mardi Gras and Fat Tuesday are celebrated a little differently here. It is Sunday that is the big feast. 'Boller' are baked, which are sort of a Scandinavian sweet roll or doughnut. But not at all doughnut-like. More like dinner rolls, but a little sweeter and made with milk and cardamom. They are eaten year-round plain or with raisins, but during this feast they fill them with marzipan, whipped cream, or all kinds of other sweet creations.
