What about the word 'nigger'? Is that word recognised in Sweden? I know it is not actually a Swedish word - but would its meaning be known to everyone? (e.g. most people here know what merde means)

I have to say that I'm not really sure what to make of this case.
I don't believe that it is absurdly stupid that some people took offense. I do wonder about who ever marketed this ice cream - surely it would have occured to them that this would be seen as offensive?

I do agree with Redlemon about the 'graffiti' text though.
