Poppy seed cake/sweet bread. This delicious one photographed now is from Bread Club in Zagreb.
Here’s a Croatian recipe (in English) for Makovnjaca.
In 2011 I posted about Povitica. A loaf that reveals a swirl of poppy seed filling or walnuts when sliced and is found in many different countries. I can’t distinguish the two names except the one we ate with tea was moist and flavorful.
Do you like poppy seeds?


Poppy seed deserts are some of our favorites….looks delicious. Maybe we’ll try the recipe.
That looks very yummy!
I love poppy seed roll! One of my very favorite things.
That is a whole lot of poppyseeds!
Agree. Not sure I’m game for such a concentrated poppyseed experience….
