"sounding names. Frusen Glädjé Frusen Glädjé was a company that made ice cream for the United States market, founded in 1980 by Richard E. Smith. Although the ice cream was made in the U.S., it used a quasi-Swedish name. ""Frusen glädje"", without the acute accent, is Swedish for ""frozen delight"". However the acute accent changes the word into a nonsensical word in Swedish, or at least a strange/dialectal intonation. After being sold several times, the brand is no longer in use. Frusen Glädjé was produced at a Dairy Lea plant with special equipment and sold in 10 states in 1981,"

The reason he chose this method was so that the name would be unique and original. In 1980, Häagen-Dazs unsuccessfully sued Frusen Glädjé, an American ice cream maker founded that year, for using foreign branding strategies. The phrase ""frusen glädje""—without the acute accent—is Swedish for ""frozen delight"". In 1985, Frusen Glädjé was sold to Kraft General Foods.

"Ischoklad Ischoklad (""Ice chocolate""; ""Eiskonfekt"" in German, which is also translated as Ice Confectionery) is a candy originating in Germany which is now popular in both Germany and Sweden. It is a seasonal candy in Denmark and Sweden during Christmas. It is usually made using only chocolate (one-half to two-thirds) and coconut oil (one-third to one-half). The reference to ice in the name relates to the fact that it melts very easily in the mouth and is perceived to have a cooling effect as the heat energy is absorbed. This effect is due to the melting point of coconut oil"

Another American ice cream producer, Häagen-Dazs, sued unsuccessfully in 1980 to stop Frusen Glädjé from using a ""Scandinavian marketing theme"", despite Häagen-Dazs not being remotely Scandinavian-sounding itself. Häagen-Dazs's complaints included Frusen Glädjé's ""prominently displayed list of the product's natural ingredients, a list of artificial ingredients not found in the ice cream, directions for serving and eating the ice cream (essentially that it was best served soft), and a map of Scandinavia"". The court ruled against Häagen-Dazs on the grounds of unclean hands, as Häagen-Dazs had similarly marketed itself as Scandinavian (specifically"

The reason for eating ostkaka while it is lukewarm is that if eaten too warm, the delicate flavors of the ostkaka will not come through, and if eaten too cold the consistency will be too firm and heavy. Despite the similarity in literal translation, ostkaka should not be confused with cheesecake which is a layered cake.

"Neapolitan ice cream Neapolitan ice cream, sometimes known as harlequin ice cream, is a flavor made up of three separate blocks of vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry ice cream arranged side by side in the same container, typically with no packaging in between. Neapolitan ice cream was named in the late 19th century as a reflection of its presumed origins in the cuisine of the Italian city of Naples, and the many Neapolitan immigrants who brought their expertise in frozen desserts with them to the United States. Spumone was introduced to the United States in the 1870s as Neapolitan-style ice cream."
