When I was asked to bring some saffron treats for a gathering a while ago, I wondered for a while what to bake. I came up with a variant of the popular Swedish chocolate ball. I thought what can be better than having a Swedish fika with a classic coffee bread with a little twist. These delicious homemade saffron balls are covered with chocolate and dipped in coconut flakes.

Arak is a Lebanese aniseed spirit and popular to use in these Swedish chocolate balls. With this recipe the arak balls almost taste like the balls you find in the cafés. You can change the bread crumbles against oatmeal, or biscuits like digestive.
A sausage sauce with a big sausage called falukorv in Swedish. You can take whatever sausage you like as long as it is not to strong, cervelat sausage is a good option. A simple weekday food.
This is a homemade cake with a different type of bottom as it is made with almond pastry. This cake will not be a favorite among kids, it is meant for adults as the coffee taste comes out quite nicely. Though even if you are not a fan of coffee, the mix with almond gives it a lovely touch. It is perfect to serve this cake after a romantic couple dinner or when there will be only adults at the party !
