The recipe for bleskiver is from the cookbook Delectably Danish . One of those ornaments might include a Easter witch, hand-crafted in wood, brightly painted and available at Ingebretsen's. The Easter witch or p skk ringar is a Swedish tradition. It was once believed that witches were about at Easter, so all doors were kept shut to keep them out. The witch survives as an Easter motif today.
Children dress up as p skk ringar with bright kerchiefs on their heads and sporting a broomstick.
Witches supposedly flew on broomsticks or stolen farm animals to meetings on Easter weekend. Decorating with a witch motif in modern times, thankfully, cast witches in a humorous and benevolent light.
