    Exclamation Kringla Bakeri og Kafe Re-Opens From Multi-Month Refurbishment: Updated 9/4/18

    9/4/18

    Kringla Bakeri og Kafe recently re-opened in Epcot's World Showcase from it's multi-month refurbishment.

    The interior of the bakery has approximately doubled in size and now has a dedicated queue area. The outdoor seating area, however; does not appear to have been expanded as part of the refurbishment.

    The overall menu of the refreshed location appears to be primarily unchanged. Guest favorites like School Bread, Lefse, Kringla, and Viking Coffee have remained:

    During the closure, the Midnattsol Bakeri kiosk will operate on the World Showcase Promenade serving School Bread and other popular pastries.

    I was about to have a heart attack until I saw this sentence. I can't go to Disney World without schoolbread. I even have a special savings set up to get a round of schoolbread for everyone. I had a membership at a gym I joined when I had a contract in Texas. They don't have a facility near me now, so I use Planet Fitness. I hadn't gotten around to cancelling the membership, because it was only $10. One day, I realize I could save that $10 a month to buy schoolbread for everyone during the wedding trip. Voila! I now have $10 a month towards schoolbread.
    I'll meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.

    Can someone explain what, exactly, is school bread? I've never tried it, but it seems to have a real fan followring! Seriously, the biggest problem with Epcot is WAY too much good food that I want to try - but I'm thinking French pastries this time - unless someone can convince me that school bread is better!

    Epcot is a big place. Try French pastries and then walk to the other side where Norway is. You'll be done with your french pastry and be able to get schoolbread. :P

    Imagine a soup bowl, but it is made with what they call "sweet bread" and not regular bread. I don't think it is really sweet, so I'm not sure why they call it that.
    Anyway, the bowl part is filled with custard. The top of the bowl is lightly dipped in a sugar glaze and sprinkled with coconut with a dollop of custard poking out of a hole in the top of the bread.
    I'll meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.

    Pastry
    Ingredients
    2 pints water
    3 ounces dry yeast
    3 1/2 ounces sugar
    2 1/2 ounces butter (melted)
    1 teaspoon cardamom
    2 pounds flour
    1 whole egg
    8 ounces shredded coconut
    12 ounces vanilla custard

    Method
    Heat water and butter to 95 degrees. Mix flour, sugar, cardamom, yeast, and egg together for five minutes until dough is stiff. Form it like a ball and place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let proof for 45 minutes, or until dough has doubled in size. Roll the dough out like a sausage and cut into five ounce pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and put them on a non-stick sheet pan and let them proof for 30 minutes. Bake for 15 minutes in 375 degree oven. Let cool.

    Mix powdered sugar and water (use small amounts until proper consistency is achieved) to make icing and place in shallow pan. Form hole in bread using finger. Dip bread in icing (hole side down) and sprinkle with shredded coconut. Using pastry bag, squeeze vanilla custard inside of hole and swirl at top for decoration.

    Vanilla Custard
    Ingredients
    1 2/3 cups milk
    1/4 cup sugar
    1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
    4 egg yolks
    1 tablespoon corn starch

    Method
    In heavy saucepan bring milk to a boil. Set aside. In bowl, beat eggs, sugar, and vanilla until the mixture doubles by volume. Add the hot milk a few drops at a time to temper the eggs. Mix well after each addition. Place in metal mixing bowl and place over double boiler. Dissolve cornstarch in a little water and add in a thin stream while stirring constantly until it thickens to proper consistency. It must not boil. Cool by placing pan in ice bath.

    From my days as a high school student in Norway, «skolebrød» is a pastry, generally bought at the local «konditori» (bake shop/cafe) by local high school kids. Usually, it’s a sweet dough flat round, about 8-10 inches in diameter, generally with a layer of white vanilla glaze on top that is sprinkled with coconut. But the piece-de-resistance is the gold dollop of custard, about 2” diameter, right smack in the middle of the glaze-coconut topping. It’s wonderful stuff, especially with coffee.
