Doina!


What are these? They look like some kind of delicious snack cake. I'm intrigued. Should any of you fine folks have information on ordering these, please contact me.

I thought so too, they look delicious. But after googling it appears to be some milk based skin care cream. The case says "Doina" "Original" "BATON CU LAPTE" ("milk bar").

...a little fantastic, and fleeting, and out of reach.

Yeah, I couldn't find anything that lead to the cake bar thing from the film. According to Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doina. It's a certain style of Romanian music. I also found mention of it being a girl's name in Romania. I guess it's a term commonly used for various products etc. Funny that the film makers would make up their own snack cake for the film though, extra kudos if that's the case!

It's fake! We invented it for the movie! In real life, it was some sort of chalky candy which we put in new wrappers with our logo on them. :)
