It takes place 47 days before Easter and originally marked the end of the festive period before Lent. It was a time when people enjoyed rich and hearty dishes that would then be given up during the fast. That’s why Mardi Gras has become a day to indulge in treats, like our classic semla, before the start of Lent.
At FIKA, we proudly celebrate Semla Day with freshly prepared semlor, just like homemade. Come and discover this flavorful tradition, perfect for brightening up a winter day in Paris with a must-try Swedish delicacy!
