EATS: The Original Swedish Frozen Yogurt Factory

The Original Swedish Frozen Yogurt Factory can be found in Gallerian, a mall near Stockholm's Central-Station.

What I had was a fat and sugar free strawberry yogurt with chocolate cream and coconut bits and Kex Chocolate halves. Clearly, I made up my fat and sugar with the candy toppings I had.

It was delightful. The yogurt had the strawberry taste I craved, and the crunch of the toppings mixed very well. 

My sister had this sizable monster of yogurt with fat and sugar. Chocolate and vanilla yogurt with sprinkles:

With a price of 20 Crowns per 100 grams, I think it's reasonable. Quick bite!

EATS: Espression Lavazza - Stockholm's Arlanda Airport

A quick snack before we board a 2 hour flight to Amsterdam (flight from Stockholm to Amsterdam experience will come out tomorrow!) was spent at Espression in Stockholm's Arlanda Airport.






I had the Chocolate Covered Chocolate Muffin (diabetes!). It was good, but I expected more!!

My mom had the Blueberry Muffin together with a Hot Chocolate.


I didn't write anything down, so this is a really short post.

EATS: Swedish (?) Chocolate

Sidenote: The title has a question mark on it because I'm not 100% sure that everything here is purely Swedish.


Food wise, Sweden has lots of stuff to offer. From microwavable meatballs to the ice cream you get in Gamla Stan, one thing unique (to me) is their chocolate.

My definition of "unique" is things that I've never seen or heard before, so if this is in your country, and not exactly unique to Sweden, pardon.

First is Milch-Nuss! This is a chocolate bar with chopped hazelnuts mixed in to it. Me and my friends thought it would be a good bargain to buy, 'cause it costed SEK 5. (~90 US cents). It was very "eh", and there weren't that much hazelnuts in to it. 

One of the most iconic chocolates made in Sweden would probably be Marabou. Trust me, it's everywhere. Marabou comes in a whole range of flavors, and in this blog post, we chose Marabou and chunks of Daim chocolate. 

I LOVE DAIM!

This is probably one of the best things I have ever tasted. Daim's hard caramel is to die for. I could literally finish a whole separate bar of Daim in two minutes, even though it's hard to bite. The separate Marabou was good too, but I think that since the caramel didn't melt easily, it had a more obvious flavor.

{Sidenote: A separate bar of Daim and the original milk-chocolate Marabou deserve their own post!}

EATS: Hot Beverages at Espresso House, Sabbatsberg

Before I start this blog post, I just wanted to thank Giulia, Patricia, Daniele and Gloria for spreading the word about my blog!

Whether you've stayed in Stockholm for a long time, have just visited once, or will just visit, I assure you will Espresso House all around you. I wouldn't be surprised if they have one Espresso House per two kilometers.

Fortunately, we live in a place near a park, a hospital, a supermarket, a train station and an Espresso House. We've visited this particular branch a couple of times, and I couldn't blog about it because I always forget my phone.

Espresso House's White Hot Chocolate

My sister and I ordered the White Hot Chocolate, my dad got a Latte and my mom got a normal Hot Chocolate. 

My drink tasted okay, but not very good. The thing that concerns me is that did they really use white chocolate or milk? I couldn't really taste the difference.... 

Besides hot beverages, Espresso House also offers a good variety of sandwiches, cookies and other sweet stuff and smoothies.

EATS: Tim Tam's from Australia

My stepdad went to Australia the past week to check on his farm and some other stuff that grown-ups do. 

We made a checklist on what to bring from Australia and back here to Stockholm. Among the list were staplers, supplies for school, Microsoft Office disks and Australian foodstuffs. 

He brought me two packets of TimTams, a biscuit kinda like a Kitkat (name resemblance, eh?), two packs of our favorite nougat and VEGEMITE. 

Based from internet sources, a packet of TimTams cost from about 2.50 to 3.20 Australian dollars, about 16-20 Swedish Crowns or 2-3 U.S dollars.

First Impression: Once I opened the packet up, I thought that they would go beautiful as an accompaniment to afternoon tea or coffee. 

I tried the original one first, because you always need to try the original ones first, duh. IT WAS AMAZING! The filling was very creamy and was very delicious. I think it was too biscuit-y though, but I don't care. It's very good. Highly recommend. The texture of the biscuit was like a thinner but wider Kit-Kat. 

Then I tried the dark chocolate one. I personally prefer milk chocolate (in general), because of its creaminess, and I think that dark chocolate is quite bitter, and white chocolate is just... "ehh". 

This kind of dark chocolate biscuit was good too, but it was kinda bitter too. Clearly not a disappointment, though.

I shall try nougat and Vegemite next time!

EATS: More Hemköp Pastries! {Bon Voyage, Stephanie!}

So another good friend of mine, Stephanie will go back to Canada after over one year of staying here in Stockholm. Long story short, she treated us with pastries from Hemköp, that supermarket I had two posts on.

Click here to see more of my thoughts about Hemköp's doughnuts, or here for my thoughts about their Danish Pastry. I am not getting paid by Hemköp, even though most of my "EATS" post comes from them. 

So we bought a chocolate muffin for me, a kind of carrot cake for Patricia, a soda for Linh and three doughnuts for Stephanie.

The muffin was tasteless, I admit. Can you see those little chunks / squares of chocolate above the muffin? Yeah, they were the only things that were good... The doughnuts seemed to be freshly baked, but in my opinion, the doughnuts should have been freshly baked and hot. (My sister ate one of the doughnuts, Stephanie had two... I can't exactly remember). Most of the pastries were priced at SEK 9, but I think the doughnuts were 3 for SEK 15 or SEK 25. 

Thank you Stephanie! I wish you a great life in Canada! As one of my favorite Youtubers Joey Graceffa would say it, may the odds be ever in your favor, goodbye!!
