Wonderful Copenhagen: Décor

Today I'm very exited to share another of Copenhagen's hidden gems with you, and this one is a gem indeed. It might even be a diamond if you're a vintage fan like me. Décor is the best vintage shop in Copenhagen in my opinion, and I've been to quite a few. I only recently discovered it thanks to a tip from a friend at work, who took me there a few weeks ago. I was blown away when I entered the shop and beheld the treasures surrounding me in all their glory (yes, that's really how I felt in that moment!). They have everything from clothes, jewelry, handbags, and decor items. I'm currently in love with quite a few things there that are on my birthday wishlist. I bought the loveliest vintage 1930's top that I'll share with you soon. Did I mention that much of the inventory dates back several centuries? I hope you'll take time to visit this place if you're in Copenhagen and need a break from highstreet shopping and want to see something quite unique. For now enjoy these pictures that I snapped for you!

Wonderful Copenhagen: Agnes Cupcakes

I've decided to do a series of posts about my wonderful city, Copenhagen. I've lived here all my life and though I love to travel and see new places, it's always nice to come back to something that's familiar and feels like home. When you've lived in a city for many years, you get to know all the hidden gems and special little places that you don't normally read about in travel guides, and that's the kind of places I want to show you. I'm going to start out with something rather new but also something I'm obsessing about a lot at the moment: Agnes Cupcakes! Denmark is not a place where you can get cupcakes normally, nor do we have the wonderful French macaroons that I so love. Instead we are known for danish pastries and buttercookies, which to me are rather simple desserts that I'm not that into. I'd much rather eat something that blows my mind both visually and on my tastebuds.

And that's why I'm totally obsessed with Agnes Cupcakes, Copenhagen's new go-to cupcake joint. The place itself is very Scandinavian, warm and clean, minimalism at it's best, and the cupcakes are displayed to almost look like colorful little jewels with sweet velvety frosting. They come in a variety of yummy flavors such as coconut, almond, carrot, red velvet, and milk chocolate. There are a total of 30 different flavors served on different days, so you have to go back to get your favorite ones. Every detail has been cared for so the boxes the cupcakes come in are also little works of art, though simple, clean and easy to handle. I'd definitely recommend going here if you're visiting Copenhagen and want something tasty to satisfy your sweet tooth. And remember to check the website if you want to know what day they have your favorite flavor.
