Fika — the coffee break itself, noun and verb. Fikapaus and fikarast — the scheduled pause for it at work. Fikarum — the room where colleagues gather. Påtår — the refill cup, traditionally included as a matter of course. Konditori — the classic Swedish pâtisserie-café. Kafferep — the historical women's coffee gathering, an ancestor of the modern social fika.
On the table: kanelbulle (cinnamon bun), kardemummabulle (cardamom bun), chokladboll (no-bake chocolate-oat ball), kladdkaka (sticky chocolate cake), prinsesstårta (green marzipan princess cake), and småkakor (small cookies). Sju sorters kakor — 'seven kinds of cookies' — names the old hosting standard, and saft is the berry cordial served to children and non-coffee drinkers.
