LATVIAN BRAND · · SELGA · 250 G
What they are
Mīkstās piparkūkas are soft gingerbread. These are not the thin, crisp rounds Latvians bake in December. They are small, tender stars with a texture closer to cake than biscuit. They carry the same warm piparkūkas spice, with a little cocoa and 11% chocolate in the recipe. Selga makes them without palm oil.
Put a few on a saucer with black tea, coffee or hot chocolate, or set out a bowl when guests come round over the holidays. Their star shape suits Advent calendars and children's party bags too.
