Annika’s Hembageri Odengatan 43 113 51 Stockholm Tel: 08 673 47 54 – Annika’s bakery received the award for the best ‘semla’ in Stockholm.

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Last night at the Helena Horstedt show I ran into the beautiful singer/artist/model Ania Chorabik and she asked me if I liked sweets and then told me about her mother’s bakery where the King of Sweden buys his cookies and about the traditional Semla cakes. Immediately I asked Nicolas Richard to arrange that my driver would pass by the bakery on route to the airport.

Ania travels the planet for her music, modeling and her art but she happened to be in Stockholm and was helping her mom out today. She had prepared an amazing package for me.
