Bratislavský rožok

(Pressburger Kipfel, Pozsonyi kifli)

Bratislavský rožok is a traditional Slovakian pastry that has a centuries-long tradition. It comes in two different varieties – the crescent-shaped pastry filled with poppy seeds or the C-shaped variety that is filled with ground walnuts.


Each rožok needs to be rolled manually, have an equal amount of pastry and filling, and the typical glossy, golden marble pattern on the top. The first official mention of Bratislavský rožok dates back to 1785 when it was introduced at a patisserie in Bratislava.


Through history, it was integrated into Austrian and Hungarian cuisine, where it is better known as Pressburger Kipfel and Pozsonyi kifli.
