Iceland: Kornid

I know this is my third post on a bakery in Iceland but what can I say, I had to write about my favourite pastry I’ve eaten on this trip…..its like my love for the pain au chocolat when I travelled through France.  As soon as I discovered it, I had to have it every morning until I left Iceland – which was only for 2 days – sigh.  I actually saw this pastry at some of the other bakeries but didn’t try it until I hit Kornid.  I don’t know the name of the pastry but its shaped similar to a strudel with a very flakey exterior (kind of like a croissant texture) filled with almond paste and then half-dipped in chocolate!  It was absolutely delicious – you can’t see me but my mouth is watering just thinking about it!  Yours might too after looking at all the pastries!
