Skedvi Bröd

In the heart of Skedvibygden in Dalarna, there has been a history of baking the most legendary knäckebröd for many decades. Skedvi Bröd is the continuation of an old tradition. The crispbread is made by hand and baked in wood-fired ovens by bakers who together have several hundred years of experience in the craft. The baker’s ovens are hot with crispy softwood, giving the knäckebröd its fantastic character. The fact that a knäckebröd is a bit more brown-baked does not mean it is burnt and damaged; it’s just a knäckebröd with even a little more character. So in the old factory, now called Kulinariet, in Stora  Skedvi, new years are added to an already very long tradition of baking knäckebröd with artisanal methods.

As of November 2023, Skedvi Bröd has the right to use the EU's Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) quality label. The knäckebröd that gets the label has two different bakes: Skedvi Bröd Original and Skedvi Bröd Brown baked. The EU Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) mark highlights the relationship between a specific geographical region and a product name. The product may have a certain quality, reputation or other characteristics attributable to its geographical origin.

Skedvi Bröd is produced in the geographical area of Stora Skedvi parish in the southern part of Dalarna, Sweden. The bread is a traditional round perforated knäckebröd baked on rye flour and baked on a cast iron hob in wood-fired stone ovens.
