Finland
Country facts
Food and drink
Eat as many seasonal berries as you like: blueberries, lingonberries, raspberries, strawberries, cloudberries, and sea-buckthorn berries are easy to find in local markets and they are the main ingredient in local desserts. Don’t miss the local fish: herring, salmon and whitefish are a delight in Finland.
