Poppy roll with honey is a refined dessert of Russian cuisine, featuring a rich aroma and delicate texture. Poppy seeds, traditionally used in Slavic baking, give the roll a distinctive nutty-vanilla flavor, while honey adds natural sweetness and depth. Historically, poppy products symbolized prosperity and well-being, and the combination with honey makes this roll especially warming and cozy. The soft and airy dough harmoniously complements the rich filling, creating a perfect balance of flavors. After baking, the roll is covered with a delicate glaze made of butter, milk, and sugar that gives it an appetizing shine. Perfect with tea or coffee, this dessert delights not only in taste but also in aesthetics, filling the home with warmth and comfort.
