Swedish cuisine may not be the most popular in the world, but it certainly has some dishes that are delicious. If you love spending a day at IKEA and never miss the chance to eat their famous meatballs, you’ll probably love this recipe, too.

Sommarrulltårta is a delicious fruit cake that’s popular around Sweden during the summer when there are fresh fruits. Here’s how you can make it at home.

Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • 3.5 oz sugar
  • Vanilla extract
  • 4.2 oz flour
  • 1 oz powdered sugar

For fruit spread

  • 7 oz your favorite berries
  • 2 oz the same berry jelly
  • 3.5 oz mascarpone cheese
  • Vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven at 400 degrees.
  2. Separate the egg whites from egg yolks. Beat the egg whites with half of your 3.5 oz sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the egg yolks with the other half of sugar, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
  4. Combine by slowly adding egg whites mixture to the yolk mixture and stir as little as possible.
  5. Add flour and combine everything. Pour the batter into a big, thin baking tin and bake for 10 minutes or until golden.
  6. Prepare the fruit spread by mixing everything together. Spread over the baked batter and roll.
  7. Wrap your cake in tin foil to keep it from unrolling and keep in the fridge for a few hours. Slice and serve!
