This Croatian pastry is a traditional delicacy that is mainly associated with the island of Krk. Presnac was created as a way to utilize the once abundant fresh sheep cheese and to create a unique, authentic dessert. The dish is assembled out of a pastry base that holds the creamy, lightly sweetened cheese filling. Though tradition suggests only sheep cheese, modern variations often replace it with fresh cow cheese and usually alter the filling with eggs and lemon zest. Presnac was traditionally prepared during the Carnival season, but nowadays the locals use every opportunity to make this specialty and to keep the tradition alive. Every year, a festival called Festa od Presnaci is held in the small town of Kornić, where the locals present their best versions of this traditional pastry.
