I love cake

Especially Kyiv cake

Kyiv cake is a dessert cake produced in Kyiv, Ukraine since December 6, 1956 by the Karl Marx Confectionery Factory which is now a subsidiary of the Roshen corporation. Once confectioners forgot to put some amount of egg-white for the biscuit in a cooler. The next morning the chef Kostiantyn Petrenko, with the help of 17-year-old assistant Nadiia Chornohor, in order to hide the mistake of his colleagues, spread the frozen cakes with buttercream, strewed with powder, decorated with floral ornaments. The recipe of the Kyiv cake has changed with time: in the 1970s, bakers perfected the process of making the egg-white and nut mixture. They then started to add hazelnuts, and began experimenting with adding peanuts and cashews; however, these nuts were expensive and increased the cake's cost, so the factory returned to using hazelnuts.
