Our selection features classic European cakes, each made with high-quality ingredients and time-honoured recipes. From the smooth, creamy texture of cheesecake to the flaky layers of Napoleon, these cakes offer a delicious way to enjoy traditional flavours.
Honey Cake (Medovik): A Classic with Natural Sweetness
Honey cake (medovik) is a well-loved dessert in Eastern Europe, known for its thin layers of honey-infused dough and creamy filling. As the cake rests, the layers absorb the filling, creating a soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
What Makes Honey Cake Special?
- Natural honey gives it a rich, caramel-like sweetness.
- The layers soften over time, making it even more flavourful.
- It pairs beautifully with tea or coffee for a comforting treat.
Honey cake is a wonderful balance of sweetness and texture, making it a favourite for both special occasions and everyday enjoyment.
Napoleon (Cremesh): Crisp Layers and Creamy Filling
Napoleon cake (also known as cremesh) is a perfect combination of flaky pastry and smooth custard filling. Inspired by the French mille-feuille, this cake is made with thin, buttery puff pastry sheets layered with creamy custard or pastry cream.
Why Napoleon Cake Stands Out
- The buttery, crisp pastry contrasts beautifully with the soft filling.
- The custard or pastry cream is rich but not too heavy.
- As the cake rests, the layers soften slightly, creating a perfect balance of textures.
This cake is both elegant and comforting, making it a great choice for any occasion.
Marlenka: A Modern Take on a Traditional Favourite
Inspired by honey cake, Marlenka is a variation that combines the natural sweetness of honey with a moist, tender texture. Made with simple, natural ingredients, Marlenka cakes have a deep, caramelized flavour and a long shelf life without preservatives.
Our Selection of Marlenka Cakes
- Classic Marlenka – A traditional honey cake with layers of honey-infused dough and a creamy filling.
- Chocolate Marlenka – A richer version with cocoa-infused layers for a deeper, more indulgent flavour.
- Gluten-Free Marlenka – The same delicious honey cake, made without gluten so that everyone can enjoy it.
Marlenka cakes are a great option for those who appreciate natural ingredients and classic flavours.
Cheesecakes: Smooth, Creamy, and Timeless
Cheesecake is loved for its rich, velvety texture and perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess. Made with fresh cream cheese, eggs, and a carefully baked crust, it’s a dessert that feels both simple and indulgent.
Classic Cheesecake
A smooth, creamy filling on a buttery graham cracker crust, classic cheesecake is a favourite for its rich yet light taste. Whether enjoyed plain or topped with fresh fruit, it’s always a satisfying choice.
European-Style Cheesecake
Lighter than the traditional New York-style cheesecake, European-style cheesecakes often use farmer’s cheese or ricotta, giving them a slightly tangy flavour. These cheesecakes are less sweet but just as delicious, making them a great option for those who enjoy a more delicate dessert.
