Slon’s Traditional Christmas Potica

At Christmas time, the air is filled with the irresistible aroma and flavour of rich walnut potica, a traditional Slovenian festive cake, just like the kind our grandmothers used to bake. At Slon, it is still lovingly handmade according to our traditional house recipe by our pastry master Slobodanka and her team.

Slonova potica

We warmly invite you to visit our stand on Čopova Street, where you can purchase the famous Slon potica and dress your festive table with a delicacy prepared according to a more than 50-year-old tradition.

Once again this year, the unmistakable flavour is in the trusted hands of the renowned Mrs Slobodanka, our beloved in-house pastry master, who has been baking Slon’s sweet creations for decades and returns from retirement especially for this occasion.

We remain faithful to the traditional method of preparation, crafting our potica entirely by hand. Only the finest ingredients are used, combined with the intuition and expertise that come from years of experience of our pastry team — a true recipe for excellence.
