on your stamp with the little boy eating a bun.
I believe he is eating a Saffron Bun....also called a St. Lucia bun, Lucia Bun or lussebuns. St. Lucia Day is a holiday celebrated in Sweden on December 13. Saint Lucia is celebrated widely with candlelight and traditional candle-lit processions. Lucia herself was Christian and died for her faith. The December 13 holiday honors her. The eldest girl in the family portrays St Lucia, puts on a white robe in the morning and is allowed to wear a crown full of candles. She serves her parents Lucia buns and coffee or mulled wine. These buns also have other names. One is wagon wheels. But they can be made into many different shapes.

And there you go.
