HOME in Jyväskylä, Finland - 7th April 2012

By: mmm105

Hello!

Easter is coming, so I made some Easter preparations with my ToyVoyager friends: Porridge, Luna, Tokki, Niiskuneiti, Sylvia and Mo.

I painted an Easter egg. It was nice! :)

Then mommy put all eggs (painted Easter eggs and chocolate eggs) to the nice yellow cup.

I got hungry while painting eggs. I want to eat something really Finnish Easter thing: Mämmi. It might look very suspicious, but it taste yummy!  :p

Now you might wonder, what Mämmi is... Well, let me tell you...

Wikipedia tells that mämmi is a traditional Finnish Easter dessert. Mämmi is made from water, rye flour, and powdered rye malt, seasoned with dark molasses, salt, and dried powdered Seville orange peel. The mixture is then allowed to go through a slow natural sweetening process before being baked in an oven until set. Preparation takes many hours, and after baking the mämmi is stored chilled for three to four days before being ready to eat. Generally mämmi is eaten cold with either milk or cream and sugar, and less commonly with vanilla sauce.

Happy Easter to you all!
