Where to find American Food

Well, some things are hard to find and some are impossible. Things I have found: Premade Frosting - the Danish usually frost with a glaze of confectioners sugar and water.

If you want good old American Buttercream Frosting SuperBest has it but they usually only have chocolate. There is a British store in Nørreboro that has vanilla and chocolate. I am happy to post the recipe I used to make the frosting for my sons birthday cupcakes but you need a good food processor mixer to get it to cream right.

Hellmann Yellow Mustard - Superbest! Bagel Co. In Hellerup

Pop tarts - they ONLY have chocolate (not S'more) and strawberry at Superbest

A-1 Sauce - yes I actually found it but only at the Superbest in Osterbrogade by the Triangula. (bus 14 from Norreport)

Maple syrup - the fake American stuff not the real maple (ahorn syrup here). Go figure, it's at the Mega Candy Store along with a generic Lucky Charms like cereal. They definitely have them at the one by Nørreport.

Cereal - they have a generic Lucky Charms at the mega candy store and a generic Fruit Loops at Lidl.

They have real Fruit Loops in Sweden.

Canned Pumpkin - Mega Candy Store

Peanut Butter - don't buy the Jiffy smooth off the shelf because it aint smooth ;) if your kid, like mine, wants the really smooth, never been touched by a real peanut - SuperBest again and so far these brands - Nicks, Countess, and Sun-Pat.

Kosher Deli - Lyngby. It's tiny but it's there.

Last but not least a whole Turkey - they have it at SuperBest about a week before Thanksgiving but buy your cranberries early because they seem to have them the first week of November but then you never see them again so freeze them when you find them!
