Using A Swedish Torch for Cooking
The Ecoblaze Guide
If you love outdoor cooking and want a simple, unique way to prepare food over an open flame, the Ecoblaze Swedish Fire Torch is for you. Also known as a Swedish Fire Log or Swedish Candle, this innovative single-log fire provides both heat and a ready-made cooking surface, making it a fantastic choice for camping trips and garden gatherings.

What is a Swedish Torch?
A Swedish Torch is a vertically standing log that has been split into sections but kept whole. When lit from the top, it burns from the inside out, producing a controlled, self-contained flame that is perfect for cooking and heating. This traditional Scandinavian technique is popular for its portability and simplicity, generating consistent heat without the need for a full fire setup.
Thanks to its clever design, the Swedish Torch is easy to light and doesn’t need additional kindling or firewood. As it burns, the embers drop into the core, fuelling the fire within, while the side slits continually draw in air to keep the flame strong. The result? A long-lasting, consistent burn that’s both eye-catching and practical.

How to Cook with a Swedish Torch
Cooking over a Swedish Torch is both versatile and simple. Here are some popular methods:
- 1. Pan Cooking: Place a frying pan or skillet directly on top of the log. Great for cooking sausages, bacon, eggs or vegetables.
- 2. Boiling: Use a small pot or kettle to quickly boil water for hot drinks or to cook pasta.
- 3. Grilling: Place a grill rack over the log to cook burgers, meat or fish.
- 4. Foil-wrapped Meals: Wrap seasoned potatoes, corn or fish in foil and place them at the base of the log to cook slowly.

Tips for Cooking Success
- Allow the torch to burn for 10 – 15 minutes before cooking to generate a steady heat.
- For best results, use cast iron or heavy-duty cookware.
- Avoid cooking overly oily food to reduce flare-ups.
- Always cook in a safe outdoor space and never leave the torch unattended.
