Product information
Description
Muraveynik, the anthill cake, is built rather than baked in layers. Shortcrust is baked, crumbled, and then folded through caramelised condensed milk and piled into a mound, which is where the name comes from. It sets overnight into something you can slice, with a texture nothing else quite matches: crumbly and chewy and rich all at once.
What is in it
- Shortcrust pastry, baked and broken up by hand
- Caramelised condensed milk, the varenka that half these recipes depend on
- Often finished with a scatter of crumb or chocolate over the top
Who orders it
Almost always someone who grew up with it. If you have never had an anthill cake, it is worth knowing that it is very sweet and very rich, and that a small slice goes a long way.
Ordering
At least 48 hours notice, because it has to set. Made in Belgravia and delivered across London and Surrey.
