Poppy Seed Cake | Traditional Hungarian Food | Scrumptious & Delicious | Yeast Cake with Poppy Seed Filling | 16 oz Per Poppyseed Cake (2 Pack)

Love this wonderful, fresh tasting, moist poppy seed cake that tastes for all the world like my grandmother’s küchen … I’m so happy I found it and will order it again (and frequently). Perfect texture, lovely flavor, well-wrapped & protected, excellent value! Really exceptional! Great with coffee or tea any time really. Thanks SO much for offering this item. My stomach & I are in 7th Heaven!

I bought two rolls. They came very well packaged. It is the first time when I tried these rolls. They are very fresh, perfect in appearance, no cracks, perfectly baked, beautiful color. They are very tasty. It's a combination of sweet with a dark chocolate taste, which overall makes them not too sweet. There are sweets out there that you literally can't eat after a few bites, because they are way too sweet. It is not the case of these rolls. They are perfect in the morning with a cup of coffee, or in the afternoon with tea, or again, a cup of coffee. They are absolutely delicious, and yes, I will buy them again. My whole family loves them. Are they expensive? They are pretty long in size: 12 inches. The width is about 4 inches. It is a lot of work in making them, the dough is carefully rolled and with a rich filling. Given the size of the rolls, the amount of work that goes into making them and the great quality and taste of these rolls, I would say the price is right. I am more than pleased with these rolls, and I highly recommend them.

Well, i went to a section to tell the seller something which gave me limited space to say what i wanted to say and then i find this part so not sure what the difference is so i will once again try to explain what is going on. First i want to say that I have bought this poppyseed cake many times over the years from Stern's. Most of the time it was perfect except for a couple times when the filing was very scant but still edible. This last order on the other hand had the top crust/dough area smelling and tasting like burnt oil. If you take the top dough off then the bottom part was ok. I don't know how it got thru quality control cuz you can smell the rancidity of it! As with another reviewer I would have liked to have a way to contact the seller before leaving a bad review but that does not seem to be an option at all. I even tried to do it thru the Stern's Amazon store but no contact info there. I would appreciate either a refund or the cakes to be replaced. Thank you.

Gift, recipient happy

What’s great: My dad has fond memories of Slovenian potica, and he said this was perfect. His exact words were “This is the food that will be served in heaven.” He likes it sliced and spread with butter. He was absolutely delighted with the taste. UPDATE: After I posted my first review, asking for help because the second roll had gotten moldy before we could eat it, Stern’s Bakery promptly contacted me, apologized, promised to look into what might have gone wrong, and offered my choice of full refund or replacement. My dad kept mentioning how much he had enjoyed the first roll, so I was happy to ask for replacement instead. I’m editing my review and giving five stars. I will definitely buy this again. But from now on, we will put it in the fridge as soon as we receive it! PREVIOUS REVIEW: What wasn’t great: We received this on August 6, and it was fine. There were no instructions on the package or on the seller’s page about refrigeration, and the poppyseed rolls were still sealed in their packaging, so we left them on the counter. We ate the first one this week, and it was fine, but when we went to open the second one today (August 14), it had a huge patch of mold on it, even though it was still sealed in its packaging. The seller’s page says “refunds if unsatisfied, no questions asked,” and “This product is eligible for return/replacement.” I wanted to ask for a refund/replacement of the spoiled product, but there’s no way to do it. The only option is “return product.” I clicked there and then it says “This product is not eligible for return.” Well, fair enough, nobody wants a returned moldy poppyseed roll, but I DO want a refund or replacement for my spoiled product, because the seller did not warn us to refrigerate it. I checked the seller’s website and there’s no customer service. I clicked through multiple links on Amazon about how to get refunds for spoiled goods, but it always directs me to that same “request return” button, which is not what I want and will not help me. Usually if I had a problem like this, I would prefer to contact the seller to solve my problem rather than leave a negative review, but here it seems I have no option. I’m giving three stars as an average between the first roll (perfect) and the second roll (in the trash.) If the seller contacts me to refund or replace, I’ll happily edit this review. REPLY FROM SELLER: Hey Elizabeth, Thanks for choosing Stern's Bakery! We deeply apologize that you received a moldy poppyseed cake from us. This cake was shipped to you from Amazons fulfillment so we will reach out to them and see what went wrong. At this time we would like to offer you a replacment or a full refund on this purchase. Please let us know which you prefer. Looking forward to hearing from you! Have a great day, Faye Customer Service Stern's Bakery CONCLUSION: (Are you still reading this? Good for you.) I’m satisfied with the product and the seller.

The Poppy seed cake is delicious. The cake is moist, fresh and filled with Poppy seeds. The delivery is quick . Thank you

It arrived in timely fashion and the product was fresh and appeared appetizing. It wasn’t bad per se but it just didn’t have much flavor or taste to me. Admittedly, I’ve never eaten this item before so maybe it was fine but just wasn’t what I expected. Also, to be fair, I have frequently bought other items (notably challah bread) from this bakery and it was excellent and thoroughly enjoyed. Again, I have never eaten this Hungarian poppyseed bread before so it might be right on point and just not be what I expected.

Loved it. Just like Grandma used to make.
