7. Trdelnik, Slovakia
This pastry is commonly found in Prague but it’s Slovakia that has the EU registration on them, so let’s let them claim it, shall we? Dating back to the 17th century, trdelnik is made by wrapping dough around a wooden or metal spit and spinning it over a fire until it’s soft and chewy on the inside but crispy on the outside. Buy yours from a street vendor or open air market, and have it finished off with a sprinkling of sugar, cinnamon and nuts – or filled with whipped cream for a sinfully delicious treat.
8. Medovnik, Czech Republic
This multi-layered honey cake has a creamy filling and comes with a light sprinkling of walnuts. Baked in a circular tin and cut into wedges, you’ll find it at cafes throughout the Czech Republic: wash it down with good strong coffee, which seems to enhance the slight caramelly tinge in the cake’s flavor.
