A braided bread made for sharing

Estonian kringel is a sweet or savory braided celebration bread. It is baked as a large ring or braid, cut into portions and shared at the table. The local word is useful when looking through an Estonian bakery, but in English it is best understood as a braided celebration bread or braided pastry.

Sweet and savory versions

Sweet versions in the current Narva Kohvik catalog include fillings such as vanilla cream, apple, quark, chocolate, cinnamon, poppy seed, nuts and fruit. Savory versions include cheese, ham, chicken, fish, vegetables and minced meat. Available fillings change, so the individual product page remains the source for the exact description, price, ingredients and allergen information.

Browse sweet braided pastries or savory braided pastries.

Celebrations, offices and coffee tables

A large braided bread is commonly ordered for birthdays, family celebrations, office meetings and shared coffee breaks. Sweet versions can take the place of a cake or accompany coffee. Savory versions can be part of a lunch or buffet alongside filled pastries, salads and other dishes.

How much to plan per guest

Current Narva Kohvik product notes commonly recommend planning about 100 g per person for a sweet version and about 150 g per person for a savory version. Treat these as planning guidance: check the selected product's weight and notes, and allow extra when it is the main food on the table.
