Strawberry Hill Povitica - Merriam, KS

The secret recipe for English walnut povitica was Grandma’s first gift to us, and the original remains our bestseller to this day. We crush farm-fresh English walnuts and fold in sweet creamery butter, honey, and real sugar. Then we roll it by hand in just enough of our delicate pastry dough to bring the filling together into buttery, flaky goodness, just as we’ve done for three generations.

There may be no more perfect marriage than sweet, tender apples and freshly ground cinnamon. Grandma turned this marriage into a happy family by adding sweet creamery butter and locally sourced honey and wrapping it all in the love of her delicate, handmade pastry dough. Grandma knows best when it comes to family, so we follow her recipe to this day.

We wouldn’t be Strawberry Hill without the wild strawberries that are our namesake. We puree these sweet berries and fold them into velvety cream cheese with just a touch of real sugar. Then how do we get so much luscious filling rolled into our delicate, paper-thin dough? That remains Grandma’s secret.

We always knew it was a truly special occasion when Grandma added plump California raisins to her English walnut povitica. Their earthy sweetness pairs perfectly with the freshly crushed walnuts, local honey, and buttery pastry. Now we consider any day special enough to enjoy this delicious treat.

It would be tough to improve on our best-selling English walnut povitica, but this one gives it a run for the money. We complement freshly crushed walnuts with tart cranberries, sweeten the filling with locally sourced honey, and hand rolls it in our flaky pastry dough.

Enjoy a bit of Christmas cheer at any time of year! Our signature flavors of apple, cinnamon, and walnut combined with tart cranberries will make you feel like you’re home for the holidays. And of course, this gift comes wrapped in our sweet, buttery pastry for a mouthful of joy.

Our most decadent povitica, the Cokolada is like a rich, gooey brownie — but better! We start with farm-churned cream and fold in luscious chocolate filling, chocolate morsels, and just a touch of coffee. We then roll and bake it in our delicate, handmade dough to create a chocoholic’s delight.

Grandma used to say that this povitica was made with sunshine. Pureed lemons and lemon zest combine with rich cream cheese to create a citrusy confection rolled in sweet, buttery pastry that is sure to brighten your day.

The Old World heritage of this povitica dates as far back as our original English walnut, for the popular poppy seed is a symbol of prosperity in Eastern Europe. We crush the poppy seeds and fold them into layers of sweet citrus, local honey, and a touch of sugar. Then we envelop this filling in our handmade dough to create a traditional pastry that has been enjoyed for generations.

When making our povitica, we often seek that perfect balance of tart and sweet, which is what inspired this fabulous combination. Rich white chocolate and tart red cherries give a burst of flavor to every bite of our handmade pastry. We said “wow!” the first time we tasted this one, and you will too!

This has all of the Old World flavors of our original English walnut povitica, but we reduced the sugar and added locally sourced honey. As always, we crush our walnuts fresh right from the farm, fold in sweet creamery butter, and hand roll the filling in our signature pastry dough.
