When we were children my Swedish grandparents would give us a special sweet, thin wafer that they bought at a special bakery in St. Paul, Minnesota. I do not know the spelling, but is something like Oblotten. Does anyone know where I can order some?!!

I have a strange request. My Dad worked in a restaurant 60 years ago. A family from Sweden owned it. He said that they had a GREEN colored drink by the door and you could scoop up the drink and go sit outside on the patio. He said it was really good and it had alcohol in it. He remembers it bubbled in the glass. He would love to get the recipe if anyone knows what it could be and wouldn't mind sharing the recipe..He would really appreciate it.
