Description Details Extra Info
 
This uniquely bitter-sweet traditional Eastern European delicacy is loved by many. We make our poppy filling from fresh-ground, premium seeds. In order to retain the most flavor (and nutrients), we do not boil or soak the poppy seeds prior to grinding. This requires a special grinder, but it is worth it!
These days it seems most people consider "bitter" to be bad, so many poppy seed recipes are very sweet - to the point of diminishing the poppy flavor and obscuring its characteristic bitterness. Common bitters that most people appreciate are in coffee, dark chocolate, and even many micro-brewed beers. If you appreciate these foods, there is a good chance you'll like a poppy seed roll! With all this emphasis on the bitter, you might begin to think that there isn't any sweetnes at all - but you'd be wrong. We use pure cane sugar (not beet sugar or any version of corn syrup) to carefully balance the bitter-sweet combination. You'll have ample opportunity to taste the poppy seed since each and every roll is made with more filling than dough!
Speaking of dough, just as you'd expect we have to wake up early to start making it. All of our dough is made with a special-milled unbleached, unbromated flour. We use fresh, liquid milk (not powder!) and local eggs (not canned, cartoned, or frozen ones). We also use Trans-fat free, non-hydrogenated shortening and butter blend margarine. Here again we use only pure cane sugar. Of course, our suppliers for these items are all family-owned businesses.
From start to finish, there are no less than 18 different hands-on steps (depending how you count, you could say as many as 26!) to get a baked roll out our door to you. You know what they say: nothing good comes easy!

Much appreciated annual gift December 26, 2018
Reviewer: Susan Sheldon from Warrenton, VA United States  
Every year for Christmas I send one apricot roll and one poppyseed roll to my sister and her significant other.  As soon as the rolls arrive, they dive in - and then let me know how much they enjoyed them.  We're of Hungarian extraction, so these pastries are what our Grandmother treated us to each Christmas as we grew up.  Getting to enjoy them again is the BEST!

Reviewer: WilliamE Black from Silver Spring, MD United States  
Not as good as in the past; pastry too dry.  Must heat in microwave for 20 to 30 seconds to get the flavors flowing.  A little butter on top adds a little more richness.
