One of Ferlin’s specialties is the Istrian Fritule, a classic Croatian dessert that was once reserved for festivities but is now an everyday treat with various versions. Fritule consist of classic yeast dough, similar to the Venetian frittelle.
The Ferlin family expertly shapes the dough into small, delicate oval forms using a spoon, then fries them to a golden crisp in hot oil. The result is a heavenly pastry that boasts a crispy exterior and irresistibly soft, pillowy interior. Each fritula is carefully adorned with a sprinkle of sugar and a generous touch of warmth from the Ferlin family kitchen, making every bite a truly unforgettable experience.
