NEWS, TRENDS AND INSPIRATION Nordic Life SUGAR AND SPICE Evoking the warm memories of the holiday season, gingerbread cookies (pepperkaker) are a classic and timeless holiday treat. These aromatic cookies stand out with their fragrant presence, thin and crispy texture, and ability to be formed into various shapes and sizes. Traditional gingerbread shapes include people, houses, and in parts of Norway, entire towns. Bergen is home to the world's largest gingerbread town. Since 1991, thousands of volunteers have come together each holiday season to build Pepperkakebyen. @sonsofnorway December 2022 7 PHOTO BY CASPER STEINSLAND / VISITBERGEN.COMhttp://www.VISITBERGEN.COM
