📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Kaffemik is an important Greenlandic custom: on birthdays, a child's first day of school, or other celebrations, the home is opened and anyone can drop by for coffee and cake. The table fills with all kinds of cakes, and cardamom- or cinnamon-scented cake is a staple.

🌆 Where it's eaten: Inside a colorful Greenlandic house on kaffemik day, cakes and coffee crowd the table as visitors help themselves one after another.
