The Story begins in 1704
Armenian Georgius Deodatus Damascenus founded the first Czech coffee lounge in Prague, named The Golden Snake.
Nearly three hundred years later, in 1995, the Armenian Gevorg Avetisyan came to the Czech Republic to settle there with his family. He begged God to show him the right way to support his family and promised that if He helped him, he would have the Saint Jost Church cross restored. Not long after that, he recalled a miracle — A Honey Miracle, which was as a traditional Armenian family recipe of his favourite layered honey cake. Initially, the cakes were baked just for his friends, but later he has been able to offer them to the local coffee shops and confectioners where the honey delicacy quickly gained the great popularity. The fragrant, sweet and soft cake was named after his mother and daughter — Marlenka.
В 1995 году в Чехию иммигрировала армянская семья Аветисян и основала кондитерскую, визитная карточка которой — торт «Марленка». Название торта — в честь дочери хозяина. Коржи делаются из наливного теста, которое невозможно раскатать. Крем – заварной молочный. Также фишка торта – наличие цедры и капельки пряностей. Как вариант, в крем можно добавить привычную нам вареную сгущенку. Торт очень мягкий, можно есть одними губами.
ПОШАГОВЫЙ РЕЦЕПТ ПРИГОТОВЛЕНИЯ
Приготовить 6 листов бумаги для выпечки, разметить их для намазывания теста. У меня размер коржей примерно формат листа А4, плюс тесто намазывала шире этого размера на 5 см в каждом измерении. Потом коржи обрежутся по расчерченные границы, а обрезки пойдут на посыпку. Духовку нагреть до 170°C.
Тесто. Растопить масло на водяной бане, добавить мед, сахар. Смеси дать закипеть и всыпать в нее соду. Тесто пойдет пеной. Размешать тщательно, снять с огня, добавить пряности, цедру, яйцо и муку. Замесить жидкое тесто. Консистенция теста примерно как у сметаны.
На 6 заготовленных лекал вылить по 1/6 части теста и разровнять по краям. Каждый корж выпекать в течение 7-10 минут до густо-золотого цвета. От духовку далеко не отходить, следить, чтоб коржи не сгорели.
Коржи обрезать до нужного размера горячими, обрезки откладывать на противень, потом подсушить их и смолоть. Коржи прикрыть полотенцем.
Крем. Смешать яйцо, муки и половину молока. В кастрюльке довести до кипения оставшееся молоко с сахаром, ванилью и цедрой. Влить тонкой струйкой яично-мучную смесь, все время помешивая. Через несколько минут крем загустеет до состояния густого киселя. Или приготовить ванильный пудинг согласно инструкции на пакете.
Крем снять с огня, охладить, добавить в него сливочное масло и вареную сгущенку, взбить.
Коржи промазать кремом, покрыть им также верх и бока. Обсыпать смолотыми обрезками коржей (я также добавила молотого грецкого ореха).
Растопить шоколад и нанести наверх тонкую сеточку из шоколада с помощью шприца или корнетика.

Great products but even better customer service after the delivery agent made an absolute mess of trying to deliver our order. Would recommend both the awesome cakes and the fact that they really care and get involved in sorting out the problem. Superb!

First class taste, quality, excellent packaging and delivery.
I discovered these cakes a few years ago in Prague, then saw them in Vienna. I was delighted to find they are available in the UK and have just received my first order. This review is for the excellent ordering and delivery process. The SHOP app was useless but communications from DHL were first class. Next day free delivery promise was kept.
No point in reviewing the products I have had several of them before and always thoroughly enjoy which ever I have. Quality speaks for itself, and they are excellent value.
AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE
I ordered a cake for my friend whose birthday was on Saturday just after 12pm on Friday when the cutoff time is for the next day deliveries. Since I really needed the cake by the next day, I emailed them about it. Surprisingly, I got my cake delivered to me just under 2 hours of speaking to them. I guess since I live in Edinburgh it was easier for them to deliver but still their customer service is amazing. Ofcourse as always the cakes are wonderfully tasty! Over the years I have ordered so many cakes and chocolates from them- never been disappointed!
Lovely Honey cake
We love this cake. We knew the cake from before, a friend brought some years ago.We ordered on amazon the honey nuggets this time to try (as we just heard about it now on Hungarian Tv channel.) It is delicious! I highly recommend it, if you like honey.The seller also gave us a gift cake to our order, which was a big surprise, we really appreciate it! Thank you so much!We love your cakes!
Amazing service. Amazing cake!
Once again, thank you for an amazing service. And an amazing cake! My son won’t have any other for his birthday.Bearing in mind how busy the Christmas period is, I placed an order at 2am on Tuesday morning, thinking that there was no way it would get to me before Christmas, and the cake arrived by 9.30am on Wednesday morning, with free postage, because my order was over £20. Fantastic service as always. I would highly recommend this company. Many thanks! And Merry Christmas!xx
The best cakes on the planet.
I’ve been buying Marlenka Cakes for years and during lockdown started to use their website, brilliant fast service and if you haven’t tried them then you’re missing out big time.
