Bled
an image of paradise
Yes, it’s every bit as lovely in real life. With its bluish-green lake, picture-postcard church on an islet, a medieval castle clinging to a rocky cliff and some of the highest peaks of the Julian Alps and the Karavanke as backdrops, Bled is Slovenia’s most popular resort.

When you visit Bled you have to eat Kremšnita – a Bled cream cake. If is offered in many patisseries across Slovenia, but there is only one original Bled cream cake.
Ištvan Lukačevič, the former manager of Park Hotel patisserie, tested the recipes and various combinations of ingredients for a long time, before finding the right one. The original cream cake, which has been traditionally made since 1953, is the most popular one.
Original cream cakes are made fresh every day and are offered at Kavarna Park.
