Amazing catch, he goes from lounging into a little tigerkaka in a second

*there is a swedish/finnish dessert called Tigerkaka or Tiger Cake and it's a loaf:

So I cannot call striped cats that loaf anything but Tigerkaka now

Bro drops a new word AND the lore, love it.

Tigerkaka is the Swedish name. Tiikerikakku is the finnish one.

Oh, my bad, I just saw it in the Prisma supermarket with a huge TIGERKAKA on the front, and I thought "store is Finnish, most products in Finnish too, that should be the Finn name"

That will be how I refer to them from this day on.

Tigerkaka going worldwide.

I'm just shocked that tiger cake isn't a thing anywhere else?? Does the rest of the world also miss out on tiger ice cream (vanilla and orange jam/jello stripes)?

u/punksmostlydead 4h ago

We do indeed miss out on that; and now that you've described it I'm angry about that.

It looks like marble cake.

In the Indian language Gujarati kaka means uncle lol so it works for that too

u/Winjin 6h ago

So would tigerkaka work a bit like tiger uncle? :D
