It is customary to enjoy Runeberg torte in honor of J.L. Runeberg. The torte is moist as it is flavored with arrack or rum.
That's a very tasty tradition ;)
One question the cake, has a direct relationship with the poet, for example that was his favorite dessert or was it called simply in honor of him?

Vielä parempi on Kruunuvuoren torttu, joka on uitettu rommissa niin totaalisesti, että itse tortusta on tullut lähinnä rommin kantoteline. :)

That's a photo by someone else under Creative Commons (see the Image Credit). I don't make those tortes. Neither does my wife. They are readily available at every supermarket at this time of the year.
