===Denmark=== [[File:Cinnamon danish in Copenhagen.jpg|thumb|A cinnamon Danish with chocolate and nuts from a bakery in Denmark]] Danish pastries as consumed in Denmark have different shapes and names. Some are topped with chocolate, [[pearl sugar]], [[icing (food)|glacé icing]], and/or slivered nuts and they may be stuffed with a variety of ingredients such as jam or preserves (usually apple or prune), [[remonce]], [[marzipan]], and/or custard. Shapes are numerous, including circles with filling in the middle (known in Denmark as ''Spandauers''), figure-eights, spirals (known as snails), and the pretzel-like [[kringle]]s.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.saveur.com/article/Travels/You-Call-This-Danish-Pastry|title=You Call This Danish Pastry?|author=Karina Porcelli |publisher=Saveur, [[Bonnier Corporation]]|date=10 September 2007|access-date=8 December 2017}}</ref><ref>Citation from the Saveur article: [There are hundreds of types of Danish pastry, but all—from the chokoladebolle, topped with chocolate, to the spandauer, filled with vanilla custard or marmalade, or the wienerbrødhorn, infused with marzipan and sprinkled with hazelnuts—are made of crisp layers of paper-thin dough, prepared and baked according to strict rules.]</ref> There's also the frøsnapper, which is a twisted pastry sprinkled with sesame and poppy seeds. The pastry is often filled with marzipan or custard. Interestingly, the term frøsnapper has no unique meaning and is only used to refer to the dish itself.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://nordicfoodliving.com/danish-poppy-sesame-seed-twists-frosnapper/|title=Danish Poppy and Sesame Seed Twists|last=Nielsen|first=Kim|access-date=December 3, 2024}}</ref> Danish pastries of all variations have come to symbolize {{lang|da|[[hygge]]}}, a significant concept within Danish culture that embodies a sense of coziness and comfort.
