poppy seed cake
Seeded Eastern pastry
Poppy seed cake is a sweet baked dessert studded with tiny blue-black poppy seeds, which add a subtle nutty flavor and distinctive speckled appearance.
The seeds may be folded into the batter or swirled through as a filling.
Popular in Eastern European traditions, especially around holidays: My grandmother's poppy seed cake was famous at Christmas.
