If you love baked goods, learning some Croatian bakery vocabulary can be both fun and useful. In Croatia, a bakery is called a "pekara"—a place where you'll find delicious treats.
Common items include "kruh" (bread), which comes in many varieties, and "kifla" (a crescent-shaped roll). Don’t miss out on "burek", a savory pastry filled with meat or cheese, or "krafna", the Croatian version of a doughnut, often filled with jam or chocolate.
Learning these words will make your visits to Croatian bakeries even more enjoyable. Happy tasting!
