Okay so for this week's I Love Croatia post I'm going to introduce you to one of my favorite 
things about Croatia; Cvek bakery!!!
Croatia and Europe in general enjoy a whole slew of deserts that we in the US and mostly in the south have no idea about. We're talking about decadent cream filled pastries made with loving hands, I'm sure!
We first discovered these treats while out on date night years ago and they have remained a staple in our date night routine.
I've included several pictures from my favorite Cvek bakery and I'm thinking that if you look close enough you may hear a still small voice calling you to Croatia as a missionary also.
Johnny's favorite one is the Chocolate Rhapsody on the left, it's sinfully yummy!
I would show you my favorite but they were sold out, and why not, it is the best they have. It's called the Kinder Snita (german) if you couldn't tell. Kinder for children and snita for uhh, I'm not sure but it's delish take my word for it.
Oh yea and you can't eat one of these babies without a vanilla cappuccino!
You know there are perks to serving God and this is just another reason I Love Croatia!

We have those in Spain too. I have tried my best to stay away from them :). I missed them while I lived in the States.One time my sister and I with a group of ladies went to Venezuela, we found they have those there too. I think we pretty much bought one of each :)
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderfully yummy! Isn't it great how God gives you perks on your mission field because you had to sacrifice in other areas?!
ReplyDeleteYummy!!!

What a joy it is to serve the Lord here in Croatia with you! God has been so good to us to allow us to serve the Lord together in this country.
ReplyDeleteHi Tori,
ReplyDeleteI have been meaning to visit you....I'm just the loser-blogger lately. School is nearing an end, and I have no blog time:)
Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. I have ran across yours here and there. It is always nice to meet other missionary wives.
I love all your pictures. Glad to see that you had a good birthday, and I think I need to come to Croatia.... all those yummy treats:) Look forward to getting to know you better. Have a great week!
