Lussekatt
Lussekatter are essential to the Swedish holiday traditions. Lussebullar, saffron donuts, lussekatter, anything saffron. One theory is that this bright yellow saffron wheat bun was said to keep the devil away, who hated light.
The color represents saffron in it’s baked or heated form, contrary to it’s red tone while untreated. The potent spice is one of the most expensive in the world and in my opinion one of the most beautiful.
