Skolebrød or Skolebolle (English: school bread, school bun) is the Norwegian name for a type of sweet roll made from yeasted dough filled with custard and decorated with icing dipped in grated coconut. It was usually put in school lunches as a dessert or sold at bake sales, hence the name.[1]
In the western parts of Norway it is called skolebolle 'school bun', and in the eastern and northern parts of Norway it is more common to call it skolebrød 'school bread'.
In Arctic Norway, a similar roll without icing and coconut (known as a solbolle) is eaten to celebrate the return of the sun after polar night.
