Here's a delightful little book by Lynda Balslev on the Swedish tradition of fika: the uplifting daily ritual of the Swedish coffee break. It includes facts, quotes, tips, plus 20 sweet and savory recipes. While the Danish concept of hygge as caught on around the globe, so has lagom—its Swedish counterpart. An essential part of the lagom lifestyle, fika is the simple art of taking a break to enjoy a warm beverage and a sweet treat with friends. This delightful gift book offers an introduction to the tradition along with recipes to help you establish your own fika practice.

Here's a sweet gift idea: Pair our Fika book with our Löfbergs Swedish Coffee and Lars Own Ginger Snaps (Pepparkakor) from Sweden.
