Croatian snacks are almost always savoury. We might be conventional with the ingredients, but we don't lack creativity when it comes to recipes.In fact, snacking in Croatia means more than grabbing a bite between meals.

About Me.
I am an award-winning writer with a PhD in anthropology. I left my successful academic career in London and came back to Croatia.
I created this blog to help thousands of people to (re)connect with Croatia through food, history and culture.
There is nothing I love more than reviving Croatian traditions. When I see how our rich culture touches the lives of everyone who spends time here, my mission is complete.
Why the cookbook(s)?
My biggest talent is to depict and illustrate something or someplace. I mixed that with my love for baking and cooking and voila. Here’s the book of sweets that does just that.
