Original Bled cream cake

The original Bled cream cake is the most recognisable feature of Bled. Even though it is over 60 years of age, it still boasts a tempting youthful taste, forever fresh and crisp. Since 1953, the confectionery of the Hotel Park has been diligently recording the layers of buttery puff pastry used to make these mouth-watering cream cakes. More than 13 million original Bled cream cakes were made in over 60 years. For these, they used about 380,000 litres of cream, more than 863,000 litres of milk, over 6,759,130 eggs, more than 112 tonnes of flour, over 300 tonnes of sugar and more than 78 tonnes of vanilla sugar. The authentic original Bled cream cake made according to the original recipe is only served at the Park Café and in the hotels and restaurants of the Sava Hotels Bled.

Legends of Bled

Bled has always been a fairy-tale place, as a wealth of ancient legends testifies. The best known is without doubt the legend of the sunken bell and the origin of the wishing bell. Also interesting is the legend of fairies visiting Lake Bled. The beauties of Bled are described in the poem The Baptism on the Savica written by the greatest Slovenian poet France Prešeren, saying that there is no place more beautiful in Slovenia than Bled, a “paradise serene”. The tourism boom at Bled was significantly boosted by the healer Arnold Rikli. The powerful tradition at Bled is also testified to by the pletnja boat rowers and the fiacre coaches.
