Remonce

Remonce in a Kringle .

Remonce (also Remons , Remonge ) is a cream from Danish cuisine made from butter (or margarine ) and sugar , vanilla (sugar) and sometimes macaron , almond paste or chopped almonds. Other ingredients can be cinnamon or raisins.

The cream is used as a filling in Wienerbrød and various cakes, while a Remonce with brown brown sugar in Brunsviger Dough is used.

The origin of the word "Remonce" is unknown. As a pseudo-French loan word, it could have been related to remonter and possibly introduced by Swiss bakers in the 19th century. It could derive from the Italian rimanenza , which means something like leftovers , after older leftovers were reused for the remonce. Then this word could have been converted back to the French way.
