A particular place is not
merely determined by the
kind of people who reside in
that area, but also the kind of
food that are part of their
existence. Cakes are made
differently primarily
depending on the kind of
ingredients that are available.

Here we list a few of the famous varieties of cakes,
learning a little about their origin:
India: Mawa cake
This is milk-based, almonds
cashews are added for variety.
The consistency of the solidified
milk or mawa is obtained by
cooking the milk slowly so that
the liquid evaporates.

Germany: Black forest cherry cake
The black forest cherry
cake gets its name
from the Black Forest
in Germany. It is made
of a few layers of
chocolate cake that is
divided with cherries
and frost on top.

France: Gallete Des Rois
It is prepared with layers of buttery puffed pastry topped
with powdered sugar, which wrap under rich almond
cream. It is baked until the outer layer acquires a
toasted look.

Greece/ Turkey: Revani
A preparation that requires
minimum ingredients, Revani
is a cake with flavours
popping in every bite.
Semolina, lemon, orange
syrup are the chief essentials
required to bake a Revani.

Japan: Mochi
It is prepared with rice paste.
Though primarily they are
made during New Year’s eve,
however, the traditional
Japanese mochi’s are
available all year long in
different varieties like ice
cream and even soup.

Although every country
has developed a
certain taste that after
eating certain kind of
flavours, however, the
popularity of the variety
of cakes has reached
beyond varieties.
