Sevdiđah is also the name of a traditional Bosnian soft and moist cake that has jabukov pekmez and kaymak as one of its main ingredients. The cake is made by baking a sponge base, which is then soaked with the syrup after it cools. This soaking process is similar to other traditional Bosnian desserts that emphasize syrupy textures, such as hurmašice or tufahije . The syrup or agda, made with cooking sugar, water, and lemon, imparts a moist, melt-in-your-mouth quality to the cake. Recipes vary. Although the original recipe will also include a sheet of yufka at the top and bottom, often it is not included; some go only for corn flour, some a mix of wheat flour and semolina, and some just wheat flour that has been baked beforehand. After baking, the cake is soaked in syrup, but powdered sugar, a spread of kaymak, or a bit of ground nuts on top are often added for flavor and texture. Sevdiđah cake may be enjoyed during festive occasions or as an everyday treat with coffee or tea, fitting in with the broader tradition of Bosnian hospitality.
