About Sampita
Sampita is a light and fluffy dessert that originates from Balkan cuisine, particularly popular in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. It consists of a rich, airy meringue made from whipped egg whites and sugar, layered over a thin base of pastry dough. The meringue is often stabilized with gelatin and topped with a sugary glaze or powdered sugar. While visually stunning and melt-in-your-mouth delicious, Sampita is primarily high in sugar and lacks significant nutritional value, providing little to no fiber, vitamins, or minerals. It is relatively low in fat compared to other desserts, depending on the base used, but its calorie content can be considerable due to the sugar-heavy composition. Sampita is best enjoyed in moderation as an occasional treat rather than a staple in a balanced diet.
