Serbian Licitar Hearts
The "licidersko srce," or licitar heart, is more than just a cookie—it is the sweetest symbol of love and tradition in Serbia. For centuries, this vibrantly decorated honey-dough biscuit, with its signature small mirror in the center, has been the most cherished gift from fairs and a way to express affection. Today, it stands as one of the most recognizable and beloved souvenirs from our country.
A Symbol of Love and Tradition
Each licitar heart is made and decorated with special care, following a traditional recipe. It is important to note that today, they are primarily decorative souvenirs, not intended for eating. The small mirror in the heart carries a message: "I am giving you my heart; look inside to see who I carry within it."
