Spices like cinnamon and cardamom bring alluring fragrance to all sorts of Scandinavian foods, most notably baked goods like a classic swirled bun to pair with your morning coffee. The soft, slightly chewy and well-burnished breakfast pastries, showered with pearl sugar, from the chef Emma Bengtsson at Aquavit are heavenly scented with cardamom, too. And now they’re available retail for the first time.
Aquavit Cinnamon Buns, $5 each for takeout or delivery (two-mile radius); Aquavit, 65 East 55th Street, 212-307-7311, aquavit.org.
