@MultiMetaldemon Thanks for the information. It seems like it's been a tradition in Bled for quite some time. But that type of cake was made in Austria first?

@MultiMetaldemon Its originali from bled and bled only... The recipe cake was brought to the local Hotel Park in 1953 by Ištvan Kovačevič, chef of the hotel's confectionery store. In October 2009 the 10 million cream cakes baked at its patisserie have been sold at the hotel since its invention Who told you it comes from Austria

i just cracked the top of that cake with the fork and dug in, many times! i'm not surprised it may have originated in austria, after all the entire area belonged to the austro-hungarian empire for a LONG time. there are influences from many places in former yugoslavia.
