WHEN OPERA MEETS CAKE: BAKING A VEGAN TOSCAKAKA FOR FOLKOPERAN’S TOSCA

❓ What happens when Puccini’s Tosca collides with a Swedish almond cake? You get drama in the kitchen, laughter with friends, and a dessert as unforgettable as an aria.

Tomorrow I will attend a preview of TOSCA at FOLKOPERAN in Stockholm 🎭—a city where art hums from every cobblestone. My friend, dresser on Tosca, gifted me this ticket, and I wanted to return the gesture with something bold, charming, and delicious. The answer? A Toscakaka. Vegan, naturally. A cake without milk or eggs, but filled with style, story, and sweetness.


✨ But life is never without a twist. Just as I’m gathering ingredients, my phone buzzes—Martin wants to join! Suddenly the kitchen transforms into a stage. There’s tidying in a frenzy 🧹, a grocery dash down Södermalm streets 🛒, and then the curtain rises: two friends baking with the intensity of opera singers belting at full volume 🎶.

The recipe itself is classic theatre:
– The first act: a soft sponge, tender and golden 🍰.
– The second act: a luscious almond caramel glaze, shimmering like stage lights 🌟.
– The finale: a cake baked to perfection, applause-worthy and ready for gifting 👏.


This isn’t just baking—it’s performance. It’s friendship in every stir, comedy in every spill, and gratitude baked into every crumb. Whether you’re a theatre lover, a vegan foodie, or someone who knows the joy of thanking a friend with cake, this story will resonate.

💡 You’ll learn how to make the cake step by step, how to transform simple ingredients into a glamorous masterpiece, and how even the smallest kitchen can host the grandest of operas.

👉 If you love theatre, baking, or both—subscribe now. Like this video if you’ve ever mixed friendship with flour, and comment with the most creative way you’ve ever said “thank you.”

Because in the end, darling, life is always better when it’s a little bit dramatic.

Vegan Upside-Down Sandwich Cake for Midsummer + My Morning Vlog Routine ...

Vegan Upside-Down Sandwich Cake for Midsummer + My Morning Vlog Routine 📸🥪 | Daily Life in Stockholm


Ever heard of a Swedish *sandwich cake*? Now make it *vegan* and *upside-down*. In today’s vlog, I take you through my full morning creator routine — and into my kitchen for a midsummer recipe twist you’ve never seen before 🇸🇪✨



The video starts with me doing what I do every day: editing yesterday’s Instagram stories 🎬 on my laptop with coffee in hand . I post them to all my social platforms, write captions, and then — my personal tradition — I upload the oldest photo on my iPhone to social media and delete it 🚮 It’s how I keep my feed fresh and nostalgic at the same time 📲💫


But then it’s on to something truly Swedish: *smörgåstårta* — a savory sandwich cake that’s usually a Midsummer classic. Of course, I make mine upside-down and entirely plant-based 🌱


I start by layering the bottom of a container with the toppings:

– Chopped walnuts

– Sliced cherry tomatoes

– Halved olives

Then come the layers of mayo-slathered crustless Wonderbread, stacked lasagna-style with:

– Vegan potato salad

– Pickled red onions

– Lettuce

– Vegan seafood salad

– Jalapeños

– Capers

– Finely chopped celery

Once pressed and refrigerated overnight, the result is a creamy, dreamy, midsummer-ready savory cake that slices like dessert but tastes like your dream picnic 🧊🍴


In between, I unpack the creative chaos of daily life. I live in Midsommarkransen, a suburb of Stockholm 🇸🇪 and work full-time in theatre as a dresser and costume supervisor 🎭👔



This video is for anyone curious about creative routines, nostalgic digital habits, vegan versions of traditional foods, and the messy beauty of content creation. Whether you’re a foodie, a vlogger, or just a midsummer lover — you’re welcome here 💁‍♂️
