Stuffed lamb, Easter cakes and painted eggs are the traditional festive dishes that should be on every Easter table. But how much do we have to spend to keep the traditions this year?
The purchase price in live weight of lamb this year is between 5-6 levs, according to the chairman of the National Association of Milk and Meat Producers Tancho Kolev.
According to him, this means that in hypermarkets and small grocery stores the price per kilogram of lamb should not exceed BGN 13.
If you want to eat stuffed lamb in your native taverns, you will have to part with between BGN 250 and 300, an inspection by Monitor among Veliko Tarnovo restaurants shows. If you bought the lamb and just want it cooked, you will have to pay between 70 and 80 leva.
The salty prices, which have not changed since last year, will turn many people away from the whole lamb, the owners of restaurants predict. For the majority of our people, 300 leva just for the lamb on the table is too high a price.
That is why most Bulgarians will celebrate in a family atmosphere and will buy meat per kilogram. Some of the local consumers share that they will not buy lamb, as they will replace it with chicken, because it is many times cheaper.
The prices of Easter cakes also remain the same as last year, says Jeni Sapundjieva - chairwoman of the Regional Union of Bakers and Confectioners in Veliko Tarnovo.
An Easter cake of half a kilogram for the Easter holidays will be offered between BGN 2.50 and 3.50, and the Easter cake roll - between BGN 4 and 5.
Cheaper alternatives to Easter bread will also be offered, the prices of which will be around BGN 2 per 400 grams. However, instead of eggs, they contain egg melange and are mixed with colorants, sweeteners and low-quality flour.
Rise in values this year before Easter will be in the case of eggs, and it is predicted that the jump will be on average 2 stotinki per piece, which makes about 25 stotinki for 1 egg.
Most Bulgarians buy 1 shell of eggs for the Easter holidays and on average in our country 45 million are bought before the Christian holiday.
