© 2008 by Ministry of Culture

The tradition of making gingerbread emerged in some European monasteries at the time medieval and spread to Croatia, where he became a craft. The craftsmen who produced this bread, settled in the north, also engaged in the manufacture of candles and honey. The procedure for preparing the gingerbread requires skill and speed at once. The recipe used by all the craftsmen is the same: make a dough with flour, water, sugar and baking soda and add the spices necessary. The dough is placed into molds, baked, dried and painted with food coloring. Each artisan bread decorates his guise, with pictures, mirrors, verses and messages. The most common is to be given the shape of a heart and be prepared for weddings, decorated with the names of the newlyweds and the wedding date. Each craftsman plies his trade in a given area, without interfering with the activity of others. The technique of making bread has been passed from generation to generation since many centuries ago, initially only for men, but today women are also custodians of this tradition. Over time, the gingerbread has become one of the most notorious symbols of Croatian identity.
