Creator of the Princess Semla

Thimons is perhaps best known beyond the Jönköping area as the creator of the Princess Semla – a unique version of the traditional Swedish eclair filled with raspberry jam, cream, almond paste, and wrapped in marzipan. Since then, several semla variations have been created, and a visit to Thimons might just introduce you to a new flavour sensation.

Creativity and imagination abound, reflected in their ever-evolving range of pastries and cakes with exciting flavor combinations.
