Potica/Orehnjača

from $18.00

Orehnjača (awe’-reh-nyacha) is the traditional Croatian walnut roll baked for special occasions. Rich, sweet, and filled with ground walnuts, it’s more than just dessert—it’s a symbol of warmth, tradition, and family life. No Christmas or Easter table feels complete without it.

In Slovenia and parts of Serbia, it’s known as Potica (poh’-tee-sah). Growing up in a Croatian/Serbian/Slovenian community, I’ve come to love and embrace that name. To me, it’s not just a recipe—it’s a bridge between cultures, a slice of heritage, and a cherished part of who I am. No matter where I am in the world, I will always call it Potica.
