The baskets contain eggs, cake or sugar lamb, salt, horseradish, sausages, Easter cakes and other dishes depending on regional traditions. Moreover, baskets are embellished with boxwood leaves, flowers and white cloths. The custom of blessing baskets with food has been known since the early Middle Ages, but historians believe it may even have pagan roots.
