Ritual bread is an unvarying part of the Easter
traditions. It is round-shaped and decorated with a lot
of interlacing figures. In Bulgaria the tradition says that
it has to be made on Thursday before Easter. One of
these pita bread has a sweet taste and it’s called
“kozunak”.
4. Easter
eggs
Traditionally in Bulgaria, the eggs are painted on
Thursday or Saturday before Easter. The first one is
always painted in red by the oldest woman in the
family. Until it is still hot it is used by the woman to
draw a cross sign on children’s foreheads. This rite
done, the eggs painting is continued by the younger
women in the family.
