Anna's Swedish Thins or (in Swedish) Annas Pepparkakor is a brand of Swedish ginger thins, produced by the Swedish company "AB Annas Pepparkakor" in Tyresö outside Stockholm.

The ginger thins are available in supermarkets all over Sweden, exported to other countries in Europe, and produced in Canada for the North American market.
