About Lumblija

The name ‘lumbija’ comes from a love story between a French soldier and a local girl. When it came time for him to leave, he made her a cake and told her ‘N’oublie pas’ (‘Don’t forget me’), which sounded like ‘lumblija’ to her. Afterward, the recipe was passed down from generation-to-generation and is still a favourite dessert to this day.

During your cooking class, your host familiarises you with the ingredients and guides you in the preparation of lumblija. Following your cooking class, you are invited to sample this tasty cake you have helped to prepare. At the conclusion of your tour, re-board your coach and commence the approximately 45-minute drive back to the pier.
