TasteAtlas is an online culinary guide that brings together food lovers and professional food critics from around the world. Periodically, the portal, together with the users who assign the ratings, prepares lists of the best dishes in the world.

The latest ranking published in July concerns cakes. The list of the 50 best pastries is opened by the Bulgarian Torta Garsh. Czech cake with jam and crumble – Valašský frgál was in second place. The lowest place on the podium was occupied by the Russian Semtannik.

It turns out that up to five Polish cakes won the hearts of Internet users around the world. The first of them was just behind the podium, in 4th place. It’s karpatka. The high, 8th place, was also taken by the cheesecake.

The top 20 also includes pastries, which are consumed mainly by residents of the Podlaskie Voivodeship and tourists visiting our region.

Sękacz was in 14th place – one of the most popular pastries in Podlasie and Suwałki regions. The finished tree cake looks like a cut tree trunk with knots. As a result of pouring the spit with successive layers of paste, thicker layers of light paste, separated by dark layers of dried out paste, resembling annual rings in a tree trunk, are visible in the cut cross section of the tree cake. Excess batter dripping during baking creates solidified ice cubes, which eventually mimic knots.

20th place goes to Marcin. Traditional Hajnówka Marcinek is a cake with a unique creamy buttery taste, which impresses with its dignified appearance. It consists of many, usually 30, very thin cakes with a mass of cream.

The list also included a cream cake on the 28th.
