Do you know the story behind the delightful and charming little Sweetie Pie? Dating back to the early 20th century Sweetie Pies is renowned for its delightful soft, fluffy marshmallow center. Sweetie Pies are infused with vanilla or fruit flavors, encased in a crisp cookie or wafer base that provides a satisfying crunch. The exterior is typically coated with smooth, rich chocolate, which enhances the overall decadence of the confection.
These Danish sweets are called Flodebolle, meaning cream balls as they were originally made with cream. The whipped and sweetened egg white gives the sweets a longer shelf life and today it is the preferred and much-loved filling.
This sweet was originally crafted by Danish confectioners seeking to create a portable, indulgent snack that combines the lightness of marshmallow with the crunch of wafer, making it a popular treat across Scandinavia and beyond.
