Tippaleipä (Finland)
Tippaleipä are served for "Vapu", the Finnish celebration on the First of May. The Finnish drink, eat and dance, ;probably because they are happy that the long winter is over. Kind of reminds me of funnel cake! I have not made this, but posted for ZWT6. I have no idea how many 'nests' this makes.
