Have you ever tried Brač cake Hrapoćuša, because of its ingredients also called Brac sweet aphrodisiac?

Memories from your vacation or recommendation what certainly you should taste if you spend holiday on the island of Brac.
This is delicious cake that comes from Dol, Island of Brac and almost each family got their own “secret” recipe.
Hrapoćuša named after the stone that you can find in Dol because it’s look like the same name rock.
Excitement of this cake is that it can stand 5-6 days at the room temperature without losing the taste or quality.

This hearty sensation consists of two layers; an almond sponge cake soaked in Maraschino with orange zest, topped with coarsely chopped almonds and walnuts folded in sugar and egg whites. This rich cake is prepared for special occasions only and its name, meaning ‘rough,’is inspired by the craggy stone caves in the area, a similar texture to the cake.
