Cake
Description
Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. Here is the classic recipe for the "Dekor" cake. Preparing this cake doesn't take much time, so set aside all your tasks and focus on making the cake. Remember that the cake needs to set slightly before serving—refrigerate it for 2–3 hours. Good luck! Serve cooled or slightly warm.
