Hindbærsnitter is the Danish raspberry slice: two thin layers of shortcrust pastry sandwiched with raspberry jam, finished with pink fondant icing and rainbow nonpareils.
Hindbærsnitter date from late-19th-century Copenhagen pastry shops and have become a fixture of Danish childhood birthday tables. The everyday format runs at every Bager in the city; ambitious versions appear at Hart Bageri and Juno the Bakery with house-made raspberry jam from Danish summer fruit. The pink fondant top and rainbow nonpareils are the canonical finish, unchanged since the format codified in the inter-war Danish bakery boom.
