Description

You are bidding on an 8" round Keiv Cake made by WSP Bluebell Nursery Assistant Teacher, Viktoriya Lazarchuk.


Kiev Cake
A Kiev cake is a brand of dessert cake, made in Kyiv, Ukraine since December 6, 1956. The cake has become one of the symbols of Kyiv. It is made with layers of crunchy cashews meringue (made with a little bit of flour) and rum- vanilla- infused buttercream (a different type of regular buttercream).


Nowadays there are some Kiev cake recipes with layers of sponge cake or different types of nuts (hazelnuts or peanuts), but this is the original Kiev cake as I know it from my childhood.


Kiev Cake Ingredients :



  • wheat flour

  • granulated sugar

  • toasted cashews

  • whole eggs and egg whites

  • milk

  • butter

  • cocoa powder

  • rum or cognac

  • cream of tartar

  • vanilla extract
