Slovenia's rolled nut cake, baked for every special occasion

Potica is a soft, rolled-up cake made from sweet dough wrapped around a thick layer of ground walnuts, honey, and sometimes raisins. Slovenian families bake it for Christmas, Easter, and big celebrations.
The dough is rolled out flat, spread thickly with the filling, then rolled into a long log and curled into a round tin to bake.
When you slice it, you can see the dark swirl of nuts spiralling all the way through.
Every family has its own recipe - some use poppy seeds or tarragon instead of walnuts.
Design your own swirl cake on paper - draw a spiral and fill each ring with the food you love most.
