Ukrainian Bread
Kolach is a Christmas bread that is braided ring-shaped or oblong. Three round Kolachi, one on top of the other were an essential part of the Ukrainian Christmas Eve Supper (Svyata Vechera). A candle is inserted in the center of the top bread. The kolach symbolizes good luck, eternity, prosperity and a bountiful life.

Korovai, or Wedding Bread, is the traditional centerpiece at Ukrainian weddings. It's shaped in a round, and topped with a twist or braid, then traditionally decorated with sculpted dough: doves to symbolize love and faithfulness, pine cones to symbolize fertility, and sometimes branches and flowers.

Pastries
These dainties are known by various names, most commonly scuffles. The simple yet delicious sweet treats are a cross between buttery pastry and sweet yeast raised dough, rolled in sugar and cinnamon. Mmmmm, just like baba used to make.
