Gastronomy - savoury food
Ena J., Nia, Barbara
On the best-selling product of the "Zvrk" bakery is homemade bread under the baking tray. The production itself is very demanding due to the lack of use of modern machines and the old way of production.

While we were at the fair we found many sweets.
There were traditional ones, like salenjaci, makovnjača and fritule, and nontraditional ones like big lollipops and Haribo gummies.

Salenjaci
Salenjaci are traditional Slavonian sweet cake that is similar to croissant.
They are made of flour, millk, water, sugar, a little bit of salt, egg and pig fat.
Pig fat is one of most important ingredients because the name salenjaci came from the word salo(fat).

At the stand filled with handicrafts, we met two ladies who have been doing old crafts for 14 years. By knitting, they make armbands, which are worn with folk costumes. For such a thing they need beads and wool

Children’s entertainment, Nina and Lana
We all know that best customers are kids. Here are a few things that we think are best for attracting children, that we found at the fair.
The best entertainment for the kids would be carousel and small roller coaster rides that were safe for the kids! On the side was a stand that was making animals out of balloons, which kids love.
Also something that’s very interesting to kids is candy. There were a few candy stands where you could choose any kind of candy you would like!
