About 150 years ago, cakes were a very expensive treat for the nobility. The fact is that the main ingredient for sweet baked goods, namely sugar, cost a lot of money. In addition, the recipes for making lush creams and biscuits were secret.
Nowadays all recipes can be found in cookbooks or on the Internet.
Cakes served as an invitation to balls, a treat for tea
.
They were not cooked very often, because the expensive pleasure did not last long on the festive table. Cakes quickly fell into disrepair, the cream spoiled.
