UKRAINIAN KYIVSKY TORTE
Most tortes are compact and flat as compared to the modern high and fluffy cakes. Eggs add lightness to them and, in place of flour, ground nuts or bread crumbs are used as a thickening. Most of the Ukrainian tortes are rich, and the richer the better, since no one is calorie-conscious in Ukraine. The Kyivsky torte consists of layers of sponge cake containing ground hazelnuts or walnuts separated by buttercream filling.

TOP 20 UKRAINIAN CAKES FOR SWEET TEETH - CHEF'S PENCIL
From chefspencil.com
- The Kyiv Cake. The most iconic Ukrainian cake ever comes from the capital city – Kyiv. This legendary nut-and-meringue dessert was invented almost 100 years ago and is now associated with the former president Poroshenko, the owner of the famous Roshen confectionary factory.
- The Monastic Hut. You should expect cherries to go with everything in Ukraine – they know how to serve them with main dishes and desserts alike. This absolutely gorgeous triangular cake really looks like a small monk hut (Monastyrska izba).
- The Drunken Cherry Cake. Made of chocolate ganache, sponge layers, and pitted cherries, this alcohol infused cake will get you wined and dined simultaneously.
- Ant Hill Cake. I could swear no other nation uses as much poppyseed as Ukrainians. They believe you cannot spoil any dish with poppy, and I agree. As unglamorous as the name murashnyk might sound to you, the cake just sparkles when it’s sliced.
- Poppyseed Roll. For a less fancy option, as an everyday tea companion, this makivnyk (with an alternative filling of walnuts and raisins) is the best.
- Poppyseed Cake with Cherry Jelly. This makovo-vyshnevyi cake has it all. Its two layers of poppyseed sponge squeeze sandwich the other two layers – hard milk sauce and cherry jelly.
- Spartak Cake. You could argue Spartak comes from ancient Sparta, but every Ukrainian will try to prove you wrong. The taste of childhood, this cake features eight cocoa layers soaked with sour cream to melt in your mouth like a cloud.
- Napoleon Cake. You might think this recipe comes from France, but every Ukrainian will swear by it as their national cake. Moist, sinfully delicious, layered with custard, Napoleon will steal your heart and stomach forever.
- Layered Honey Cake. Yet another multilayer cake, this medovyk is similar to spartak but has honey-soaked rather than cocoa biscuits. And well, Ukrainians have such a longing for cakes that require a lot of time to make that you’ll need to put by quite some time into baking this one as well.
- Wafer Cake. This option comes in handy when you want a cake but aren’t particularly in the mood to bake one. Making vafli won’t take you longer than 30 minutes and you only need three ingredients.
