  1. I don't know, but it sure looks YUMMY!  Thanks for sharing the recipe!


  2. This is one version:

    The Powidl Pastry is known as “Powidltascherl” in Austria.

    Powidl Pastry is made of the finest Danish pastry and filled with Powidl.

    The Powidltascherl are manufactured by one of the biggest Austrian cake and pastry producers, from Austrias westernmost province Vorarlberg.

    Powidl consits of plum puree and receives its sweet taste, in contradiction to jam or marmelade, only by its natural fruit.

    For this purpose the Powidl must be cooked for hours.

    This is the other:

    The Butter Braid: Daring Bakers do Danish Pastry

    A Danish braid is simply a gigantic Danish pastry, filled with some type of sweet and sticky filling, and braided.  

    It's that sweet, sticky, buttery stuff you see populating every bakery case, ever. It's not quite a croissant - it has less butter, and is made with yeast, so it's slightly breadier and not quite so flaky.

    hope this helps.              good luck and enjoy.

    Almond Raspberry Braid

    thanks

  5. Kringle is actually meaning 'round' in Danish but refers to the bread described.

    The real word for braid is kantebÃ¥nd, but there is no such bread/loaf called that.  They are all referred to as Danish pastry i.e. Kringles/Braids/ Coffee Cakes, and more commonly, the true Danish Kringle is a Cardamon braid--not a fruit filled one.  

    Your recipe looks like a good one!
