There are a lot of good products at the Finnish banquet table, but for one Henri Alén does not warm up.
Henri Alén has a clear opinion on sandwich cakes. Pete anikari
This coming weekend, many homes will cover a graduation party buffet.
We asked the chef and restaurateur From Henri Alénis there something he wouldn’t bring to the table.
Alén favors traditional party offerings, especially the sandwich cake is his absolute favorite, but one sport could already be forgotten for Alén.
– Cocktail acid buns could already be forgotten. A stick with a cheese and a meatball on the shop could slowly remain in history.

Alén justifies his position by the fact that it is not pleasant to eat sticks. In his view, cocktail sticks do not emphasize the celebration, but on the contrary.
– I’m not a sticky person, and I’m not a ready -to -eat person, Alén laughs.
The same “you can forget” series also includes the cocktail sticks.
Instead, Alén could glow for a long time.
– The sandwich cake is awesome. I think it’s part of the party. The sandwich cake is festive, no everyday food, Alén glows.
Especially fish sandwich cakes with shrimp and smoked fish make the water wake up to Alén. He declares that he is crazy about them.
A good sandwich cake has enough filling. It is suitably moist but not wet. The filling and bread are in good proportion.

The cake must not be too greasy either. Alén has noticed that many times the sandwich cake contains too much beaten sour cream or similar raw material.
Alén assures that he has not yet encountered a person who would not like a sandwich cake. In addition to the sandwich cakes, all salty pies are, according to Alén, great party food.
Of the sweet cakes, Alén’s favorites are classic party cakes.
– For example, the rhubarb strawberry cake and the British cake are grossly good, as well as Ellen Svinhufvud’s cake is ingenious. I really like rich, sweet, old -fashioned creamy cakes.
