    Hi!

    I would suggest Vegeta by Podravka :

    Vegeta ? the most famous Croatian brand
    Vegeta is an original Croatian product, which contains a unique combination of several types of spices and dehydrated vegetables. It enhances the flavour of a dish?s main ingredients and only a teaspoonful is enough to give savoury dishes richness and fullness of flavour. The Vegeta brand guarantees the high quality of all the natural ingredients used to make the product. Vegeta gives you unlimited culinary options, and every experienced cook who uses it knows that food simply tastes better with it!

    Fig Jam my favorite  :-*
    Dalmatia Fig Spread
    A terrific fig jam and cheese topper from Croatia. Homemade with local Adriatic figs. Fig spreads are best sampled with cheese. Recipe uses include with proscuitto & toasted walnuts, a topping for ice cream or hot cereal (kids love it),with pears & blue cheese, fresh goat cheese, aged manchego, baked brie, cream cheese or as a glaze or chutney for meats. Imported from Croatia. 8.1 oz.

    More great stuff from SMS Dalmatia
    SMS Dalmatia Spalato Mediterranean Specialties initiated the redevelopment of fruit and vegetable cultivation and fishing in Dalmatia by joining forces with local farmers into a cooperative effort to re-establish the Adriatic Coast of Dalmatia as a traditional Mediterranean agricultural region.

    Farmers from this region carry their small crops to Spalato where the olives, figs, capers, almonds and other items are hand-stuffed and the olive oil is hand-pressed in small batches. The cold “Bura” wind from the Alps blends with the Mediterranean climate – dry weather, bare rocks, red soil – to create this superior product.  Try its special flavor – concentrated and naturally aromatic.

    Dried Fig Spread – this is delicious accompanied by a triple-creme cheese of your choice, on meats, or in pastries.

    Pearl Onions in Red Wine Vinegar – prepared in a special red wine vinegar which is particular to Dalmatia, this superb product can be eaten alone, in salads, or with meats. For an unbelievable combination try these onions with Salted Sardines or Anchovy Fillets.

    Capers – a wonderful salty addition to your pasta sauce, SMS capers are also tasty with fresh fish, in salads, or perfect whem making Chicken Piccata.

    Black Olive Tapenade – fantastic on crackers or fresh bread as a perfect party hors d’oeuvre, this pure olive spread comes exclusively from one island in the Adriatic – Solta.

    Marinated Garlic – this delicious item can be eaten in a mix of SMS stuffed olives, SMS olive oil and fresh or sun-dried tomatoes; it is also perfect by itself drizzled with SMS olive oil and accompanied by fresh bread. This product gives you all of the positive effects of garlic, with none of the negative.

    Extra Virgin Olive Oil – this is the Best salad oil you will ever try! It can be compared to no other flavor you will ever experience…its unique aroma and quality are characteristic only to Dalmatia.

    My favorite is Bajadera Chocolate – Bajadera is a dessert of the highest quality, combining central European confectionery artistry and luxurious oriental flavor. Bajadera is a queen among desserts, with the distinctive flavor of fine nougat enriched with almonds. For generations of customers, Bajadera has been the symbol of the ultimate dessert. We are proud to say that Bajadera was the first sweet confection to receive the designation ?Original Croatian? from the Croatian Chamber of Commerce. Its uniqueness is also recognized by numerous customers in many countries.

    And , of course,KIKI!!!!

    ls11.gif Enjoy KI-KI everywhere! KI-KI is distinguished from other caramels on the market by its high quality, assorted flavors, pocket-size to family-size packages, attractive design, recognized logotype and clown mascot. The most popular product in this line is the KI-KI fruit caramel, which has been manufactured since the beginning of the last century, the favorite caramel of generations of customers.
