Indulge in Russian Honey Cake, Brighton’s Best-Kept Secret
This cake is traditionally a unique combination of alternating light, honey-cookie layers with a smooth, creamy filling and is non-traditionally topped with flavoured chocolate ganache. The different flavours come from sauces and ingredients added to the creamy filling. Made from premium, natural ingredients and free from preservatives, this iconic Russian honey cake, aka tort Medovik, is something everyone needs to try at least once when visiting Brighton. Layers upon layers of honey goodness are filled with the most delicious cream. It’s quite unforgettable!
A Tradition Reinvented
This recipe was traditionally passed on from one household to another, although there wasn’t one’master recipe’. Every cook made it her own, as I have with various flavours. Our Medovik Cake is made from burnt honey, which is the key to this cake, as it’s folded into the sponge to create six delicate layers. Dulce de leche is slowly cooked for five hours and combined with sour cream to balance the sweetness. Fresh honey and a touch of cinnamon softly bring out an irresistible nutty flavour. The cake is rested for at least twelve hours before being served in our Brighton bakery, allowing the cream to macerate the sponge and create a perfect melt-in-the-mouth texture.
