Marzipan Day is observed in Sweden every January 6, celebrating the popular confection made from ground almonds and sugar. This unofficial holiday highlights marzipan's significance in Swedish culture, particularly during the winter holidays. Traditional Swedish confections featuring marzipan include marzipan pigs, which are believed to bring good luck, and the iconic Princess cake, a layered dessert covered with green marzipan. Other notable treats include Krokan, a multi-tiered cake decorated with marzipan roses, and Punsch-rolls, small pastries coated in marzipan and chocolate. The holiday reflects the widespread use of marzipan in various festive foods enjoyed during Christmas, New Year’s, and Easter in Sweden.
