Madarica

in Dubrovnik

Madarica is a neat layered slice built from thin pastry sheets and chocolate filling. It is the kind of tidy, old-school tray dessert that still feels at home next to coffee in Croatia.

Did you know?

The name means Hungarian woman, but in Croatia the dessert is now fully naturalized into the regional repertoire of layered home-baked cakes.
