One of Norway's glaciers had an overall area of 207 km² in 2006. The highest point of the glacier was 1,651 meters above sea level in 2007, and the thickness of the ice has been measured to reach up to 375 m. The product we are looking for in today's riddle has been given the short version of the name of this glacier; its colloquial name.
I'm not 100% sure but I believe the glacier is Folgefonna which can be shortened to Fonna such as in the last paragraph HERE
