Swedish Staples 🇸🇪: Pears

Sweet, delicate, and a familiar part of the Swedish harvest season. 🍐 Pears, or päron, have long been grown in Swedish gardens and orchards, where they ripen from late summer into fall. They’re enjoyed fresh and used in preserves, desserts, baked goods, and other seasonal recipes.

Pears pair beautifully with warm spices, which also have a special place in Swedish food culture. Spices like cardamom and cinnamon are especially familiar in Swedish baking and fika, bringing that cozy, fragrant flavor found in favorites like kanelbullar and kardemummabullar.

Our Chai Spiced Pear Tea brings those flavors together, combining sweet pear with warming chai spices for a drink that feels right at home during fall. 🍐☕🇸🇪
Even better, this drink gives back. We’re partnering with United Way, and a portion of proceeds from every Chai Spiced Pear Tea sold will be donated to support their work. 💛

A little Swedish-inspired fall flavor for a meaningful cause.

Swedish Staples 🇸🇪: Chocolate

Smooth, creamy, and always a good idea. 🍫 Chocolate has a special place in Swedish candy culture, whether it’s enjoyed during fika, added to the Saturday lördagsgodis bag, or simply kept around for when you need something sweet.

Our retail section is stocked with a few Scandinavian favorites, including Daim, known for its crunchy almond caramel covered in milk chocolate, Geisha, with its soft hazelnut filling, and Dumle, a chewy caramel covered in milk chocolate.

With Halloween coming up, these are also a fun way to switch up the usual candy and give your treat bowl a little Scandinavian twist. 🎃🇸🇪 Grab a bag for sharing, gifting, or keeping all to yourself. We won’t judge!

Sweet, chocolatey, and a little taste of Scandinavia. 🤎

Please note: These products contain nuts.

Swedish Staples 🇸🇪: Swedish Candy

Sweet, sour, salty, and a big part of Swedish culture. 🍬 In Sweden, candy even has its own weekly tradition called lördagsgodis, which literally means “Saturday candy.” The tradition became popular in the mid-20th century, encouraging families to save their sweets for one special day of the week. Today, Saturday candy is still a beloved tradition for Swedish kids and adults alike.

A classic part of lördagsgodis is lösgodis, or pick & mix candy. Instead of choosing just one kind, you fill your own bag with exactly what you like. Fruity, sour, gummy, foam, salty licorice, or a little bit of everything. 🇸🇪

Swedish candy can also look and taste a little different from many American candies. Many Swedish candy brands avoid ingredients like high-fructose corn syrup and use different colorings and flavorings than those commonly found in U.S. candy. Because Sweden follows EU food regulations, certain additives and artificial colors are restricted or require specific labeling. The result is candy that often has a simpler ingredient list while still delivering all the sweet, sour, and salty flavors everyone loves. 🍬

Ready to start your own lördagsgodis tradition? Stop by our Pick & Mix Candy Cart and build a bag filled with your Swedish favorites. 🍭

Pick it. Mix it. Make Saturday a little sweeter. 🇸🇪

Swedish Staples 🇸🇪: Coffee

Our Coffee Week Deals start TODAY! ☕ Make sure to mention it when ordering for a free hot coffee with the purchase of a pastry! With National Coffee Day tomorrow, we couldn’t talk about Swedish staples without highlighting the coffee behind so many of your cups at Johan’s Joe: Löfbergs.

Founded in Karlstad, Sweden in 1906, Löfbergs is still family-owned today. Sustainability has become a major part of how the company sources, roasts, transports, and packages its coffee. Löfbergs says its coffee range is 100% certified sustainably sourced, and the company works directly with coffee-growing communities while supporting development programs for small-scale farmers.

Their efforts go beyond the beans, too. Löfbergs uses fossil-free fuel for roasting, has worked toward more sustainable packaging, and reports that it has reduced its climate impact by 73% since 2005. In 2026, the company also highlighted investments in regenerative coffee, fossil-free sea freight, more circular packaging, and reducing waste.

So when you enjoy a cup of Löfbergs at Johan’s Joe, you’re getting more than a taste of Swedish coffee culture. You’re enjoying coffee from a brand that has spent generations thinking about what comes next.💜☕

Swedish Staples 🇸🇪: Yellow Peas

Simple, hearty, and rooted in Swedish tradition. Yellow peas, or gula ärtor, have been a staple of Swedish cooking for centuries and are especially known as the star ingredient in ärtsoppa, Sweden’s traditional yellow pea soup.

Ärtsoppa is a comforting dish typically made with yellow peas and often pork, with mustard served alongside. It also has a long-standing place in Swedish tradition, where pea soup has famously been eaten on Thursdays, often followed by Swedish pancakes for dessert. 🇸🇪

Want to make this Swedish classic at home? You can find Lars Own Gula Ärtor in our retail section at Johan’s Joe.

A humble ingredient with centuries of Swedish tradition behind it. 💛
