Characteristics.
Danish desserts are heavily inspired by other desserts, cultures, and bakers throughout Europe. Specifically, the famous Danish pastry "wienerbrød" was first developed by Austrian bakers who immigrated to Denmark during a worker's strike. Other European desserts, such as profiteroles and riz à l'impératrice, have inspired the development of Danish desserts.
Frequently used ingredients include butter, sugar, various flours, dried fruit, nuts, chocolate, and different spices. Characterized by its cold climate, Denmark features desserts consisting of fruits that can survive the long, frigid winters, such as apples, redcurrants, cherries, cloudberries, and plums.
