Cozonac is a traditional Romanian sweet leavened bread. It is usually prepared for Easter,
Christmas and mostly for every major holiday.
In Romania, the recipes for trimmings differ rather significantly between regions. The
dough is essentially similar throughout the country; a plain sweet bread made from flour,
eggs, milk, butter, sugar and salt.
Every year, the children are waiting for Easter to come to eat cozonac made by their
mothers and other desserts.
Cozonac is a culinary symbol that reunites families and recalls memories of celebrating
Christmas at any age.
It is possible that the first cozonac has been made in Ancient Egypt. Perhaps it was
sweetened with honey and filled with seeds. The Greeks took from the Egyptians their
interest in cuisine, the yeast, and the leavened doughs. Certainly the Greeks have
eaten cozonac.
Today, this dessert with a long history is prepared mainly in the southeastern
European countries, especially in Romania, Moldova and Bulgaria, where it is considered
a traditional food.

In which we all lead the age,
The lie is like a raisin
What perfumes the cozonac.”
