The cinnamon rolls day We celebrate the cinnamon roll the 4th of October, and we’ve done that every year since 1999. The reason why we celebrate is to remind ourselves of the traditions we had back in the days when we baked a cake from scratch (homemade instead of bought), and the reason why the cinnamon rolls are enlightened is because of our harvest season that starts in the autumn (and it’s something everyone can bake). The chocolate cakes day We here in Sweden like our special occasions to eat tasty pastries so much that we keep inventing more and more of these days. A much newer tradition of ours is to eat chocolate cake with whipped cream. This tradition has nothing to do with traditions. It started just a few years back and has increased a lot I popularity ever since. The celebration date is 7th of November, so if you would like to join in on our awesome day of chocolate cake-eating, it’s not too late!
