Škanjata je tradicionalna poslastica u obliku vjenčića od slatkog dizanog tijesta obogaćenog limunom i narančom. Pekla se u gradskim krušnim pećima kojih je nekad u Cresu bilo 10, a bile su vlasništvo creskih plemića, veleposjednika i trgovaca. Zanat pripremanja se prenosio od majke na kćer jer su ih uglavnom žene pekle, a njih su zvali pećarce. Domaćice su se rado okupljale oko peći jer su tamo ćakulale (pričale) i saznavale sve novosti. Pribor za pripremanje bio je: kopanca (drvena posuda), deska, lopata, raknić (sukno za pokrivanje tijesta) i starguje (željezni strugač). Pekla se kao najfiniji kolač za vrijeme fešta. Creske domaćice uoči blagdana po okolnim selima nosile su na glavi košare pune škanjata koje su prodavale, a radi ravnoteže ispod košare stavljale su posvitek (krpa smotana u krug). Iz zaborava smo ih izvukli da Vas podsjetimo i prikažemo tradiciju našeg otoka.
Sastav: brašno, kvasac, šećer, margarin, sol, jaja, vanilin, limunova i narančina kora, mlijeko, voda, rum.
