In the shops you can get premade/prepackaged fresh or frozen lefse with butter and sugar and have the option for the cinnamon ones too. It's true that the best ones come from little old ladies that sit and sell them, but you usually have to wait until Christmas for this. Potato lefse does exist but I haven't seen it around in the 7 years that I've lived in Norway. I think it might be "potetlompe" but I really don't find these to be very good at all. It's like a potato tortilla that we usually wrap a hotdog in when we don't use buns. In Norway we DO eat lefse all year round but it’s a much bigger deal at Christmas.
