Pinca

Pinca is a variety of Easter bread native to Italy, Croatia, Slovenia and Austria. It is particularly popular in Istria, western Croatia in parts of the Province of Trieste and the historical region of Dalmatia, the Goriška region of Slovenia, the Slovenian Littoral, southern Austria and Gorizia of Italy. In Italy, it is called pinza triestina to distinguish it from Venetian pinza and pinza bolognese. It is a sweet bread loaf with the sign of a cross, which is carved in with a knife before baking, on the upper side.
