I often wonder why it is...

I often wonder why the only place in the world where a danish is called a Wienerbrød is in Denmark, while the rest of the world pretty much agrees that a danish is a danish and not a Wienerbrød. I have never been to Wien (Vienna) so I wouldn't know how it is there. Here in Rome a danese is something like this:



Which was pretty good, but quite a meal, and didn't beat my personal favorite: the Cornetto con frutti del bosco.

For interested: The cake in the back is a "occhio di bue", which is made of pasta frolla, and the danish (as well as cornetti) is made out of pasta sfoglia. The cups are cappuccino, and the small glasses is not vodka, but only water.

This was our breakfast this morning.
