Those three on the picture - “Walnuts”, “Peaches” and
“Mushrooms”- are traditional homemade cookies at the weddings in western part
of Ukraine . I
remember them from my childhood! Thanks to Oksana for such a sweet memories!
Literally – sweet!
So, if you happened to attend a wedding in Western
Ukraine – you are the lucky one, because you got a chance to try
those amazing homemade baked goodies! Well, you don’t really have to attend a
wedding – you can get some of those sweets in local bakeries or groceries
stores, or if you are invited to a family celebration. Those three kinds of
cookies on the picture above are only small part of all sweet baked
deliciousness you can taste when you are traveling on the West of Ukraine. Bev, my Canadian sister-in-law, visiting her family in western Ukraine in 2011, has admitted that walnut cake baked by their Ukrainian relatives, was
the best walnut cake in her life!
