How do Swedes celebrate Easter?
Swedes celebrate Easter with a buffet of herring, various salmon dishes, potatoes, crispbread, cheese, eggs and, of course, schnapps. It’s a slightly “lighter” smörgåsbord compared to the food during the Christmas season, but it’s complemented with different types of sweets such as marzipan eggs with chocolate-dipped ends.
Today, the tradition is very similar to Halloween. Children search attics and wardrobes for the perfect costume and paint their faces with big red lips and black freckles. They find a broom and a basket and then walk around the neighbourhood knocking on doors, wishing everyone a happy Easter. If they are lucky, the neighbours will give them some candy or money.
