Those that are looking for something sweeter will not be disappointed when it comes to choosing something off the shelves of the pastry and cake shops. So many different influences: cream cakes of Austrian inspiration, nut cakes of eastern influence, kremsnite custard pies, rozata egg cakes, savijace strudels, delicious cakes oozing with cream or one of the rich Dalmatian tarts. Here's just a glimpse of what you should try:
Orahnjaca (Croatian Walnut Roll)
Makovnjaca (Poppy Seed Roll)
Fritule (Croatian doughnuts flavored with brandy and lemon zest)
Krostule (The delicacy is prepared by adding yolks, sugar, cream, rum to flour and solid dough is kneaded. Fried and still hot krostule are dredged over with dust sugar mixed with vanilla sugar.)

Other different kinds of pies with cabbage, pumpkin, potatoes, etc.
