About Karpatka

Karpatka is a traditional Polish dessert known for its indulgent flavor and comforting simplicity. This sweet treat consists of two layers of flaky choux pastry filled with a rich, creamy custard made from milk, butter, sugar, and eggs. Often dusted with powdered sugar, Karpatka has a visually striking appearance resembling mountain peaks, which inspired its name. While its airy pastry and custard are satisfying textures, Karpatka is high in sugar and saturated fats, making it more of a special occasion dessert. However, its use of eggs and milk provides some protein and calcium. Originating in Polish cuisine, it reflects the nation's love for hearty, home-baked goods that bring families together. Karpatka is a delicious celebration of traditional flavors but is best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
