Rosh Hashanah is no longer the exclusive domain of honey cakes.

If in previous years we still heard throughout the system, when the cakes arrived for tasting, fragments of sentences and mutterings of "but I don't like honey cakes" this year they faded away very quickly with a piece of cake in the mouth and "Wow, it's really delicious".

The medubik or the ryzhik - the Russian honey cake is without a doubt the star of Rosh Hashanah 2013, we have tasted quite a few versions of it this year, and it seems that a way has been found to make everyone, including everyone, love honey cakes.

Besides, for those who are still willing to admit their fondness for cakes The classic honeys, we found some great renditions of them this year.

In short, if you've bothered and worked on the holiday dinner (all the recipes for Rosh Hashanah are waiting for you here), it's perfectly fine to bring a bought cake, and if you're visiting? all the more so.

My colleague's cake is tall, with thin layers of honey cake and such delicious sour cream in between, and with plenty of crumbs all around, like an upgraded mega-mega honey biscuit cake.
