Besides a restaurant, Gostilna Lectar houses a gingerbread museum and shop. It’s 250 years old but there were 100 years where production stopped. A new owner got the recipe from the fourth generation of a family in the NE of the country as the original recipe was lost. Ingredients consist of cinnamon, cloves, flour, water, and chestnut honey. No ginger but best translation they have. Not sure why you couldn’t call it spice cake instead. Let dough rest for two weeks before baking. The coloring used to come from fruits but now just commercial sources. #gostilnalectar #gingerbread #spicecake #baking #slovenia (at Gostilna Lectar) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzhvdfEh3in/?igshid=6prl3cuufptb
