Kremna rezina

    Bled cream cake  
    The puff pastry, vanilla and custard cream dessert that's popular in central-European countries is
    also the dessert to try in Bled, Slovenia. We tried this dessert at the restaurant in Bled Castle. The
    crispy puff pastry on the outside is light and airy and the cream inside is not too sweet. For me
    personally, there was way too much cream versus the puff pastry. I still think it's worth trying once
    if you're in Bled.

     Slovenia 

     I was not interested in going to Slovenia at first, but my husband had suggested it. The few photos

     that I've seen looked nice, but it wasn't enough to get me excited. As soon as we arrived in Bled, I
     realized how wrong I was. This place was just like a fairy tale. A beautiful lake with a small island
     in the center and a Castle situated on top of the cliff. The town of Bled was so peaceful with
     friendly people which made huge groups of tour buses bearable. We stayed in Bled for 4 days and
     did daily excursions on our own via rental car. Everywhere we went in Slovenia was just beautiful
     and so serene... maybe it's because we avoided big cities. Slovenia has a special place in my heart
     and I can't wait to go back again~!
