Description

Poppy Seed Roll – Traditional Slovenian Sweet Roll with Rich Poppy Seed Filling

Discover the unique flavour and heritage of Slovenia with our handcrafted Poppy Seed Roll – known locally as makova potica. This traditional sweet pastry features a soft, tender yeasted dough rolled around a deeply aromatic and lightly spiced poppy seed filling, made with finely ground poppy seeds, a touch of lemon zest, cinnamon, and just the right amount of sweetness.

Every bite reveals a beautiful swirl of moist, fragrant filling and fluffy dough, offering a texture that is rich but not heavy – the perfect pairing for tea, coffee, or as a refined dessert after a meal. The poppy seeds are carefully ground and gently cooked to develop their nutty, slightly earthy character, while additions like raisins and a hint of citrus lift the flavour into something truly special.

Popular across Central and Eastern Europe during holidays and family gatherings, our version of this beloved classic is freshly made in small batches, based on a cherished family recipe that celebrates Slovenian baking at its finest.

Ideal for festive occasions, thoughtful gifting, or simply treating yourself to something comforting and authentic.
