This is actually not just a candy, it is a Polkagris, which translates to “polka pig”. Ask any Swede what this is and they will definitely either think you are a total weirdo or their eyes will mist over for the days of youth. Unbelievably there is one town in all of Sweden which is known for the Polkagris, Gränna; also unbelievably 9 out of 10 Swedes say they have passed through there while on summer holidays when they were a child and were given a stick. Think of it as a pacifier with a hearty dose of sugar -- kind of a contradiction but parents swear by them. We had these as part of the Swedish collection, after last Christmas so many people asked for them, we will try to keep the in stock year-round!
