Jaffa Cakes

A Jaffa cake is a sponge cake made in a circular shape, with a layer of dark chocolate and orange peel. Jaffa cakes are quite common in parts of Asia, especially in India and Sri Lanka. Jaffa Cakes are very moist spongy cakes with a subtle citrus flavor and an intense orange-chocolate contrast. I love eating them for breakfast, especially with a cup of coffee!

Jewish Apple cake

This is a very popular, old-fashioned dessert. It’s also called “Polish apple cake” or “Ukrainian apple cake.” It goes by many names, but it is delicious with either a cup of tea or coffee and especially with fruit salad.It is made in an 13x9x2 baking dish with a layer of sweet apples and a layer of bread crumbs and cinnamon. The layers are then topped with brown sugar and raisins, which are then baked to perfection in the oven until the top has caramelized.

It consists of a soft, round crust covered in sugar or honey and filled with dates, nuts, and/or raisins.It’s very popular at celebrations such as weddings and bar mitzvahs because it can be prepared several days in advance and kept on low heat until it is served.
