"Pumpernikkeli" in Finland is not the same as "Pumpernickel" in English. At least Pumpernickel page tells it is a type of rye bread, which I've never seen called "Pumpernikkeli" here. Here in Finland, it is usually oval- or round-shaped gingerbread which is covered by pink sugar-coating. Don't know why the different meanings, that would be a subject of a study. 85.217.21.90 03:43, 11 November 2014 (UTC)
Correction: not gingerbread but ginger biscuit, or similar stuff of which gingerbread men are made of. 85.217.21.90 03:52, 11 November 2014 (UTC)
- You are right and I have edited the article accordingly. Gingerbread is not completely wrong in this context as it seems to cover a wide variety of ginger-flavored baked goods, at least if we believe the Wikipedia article on Gingerbrerad. --Hekaheka (talk) 00:43, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
