A local delicacy of the island of Zakynthos, frigania is a creamy dessert that typically consists of three layers. The base is prepared with traditional Greek rusks that are neatly arranged and generously doused in a sugary syrup, which is spiced with lemon zest and cinnamon.


The base is topped with vanilla-infused cream, and the dessert is finished off with a layer of whipped cream. Always served well-chilled, frigania is usually garnished with almond slivers, ground walnuts, or cinnamon.
