Signature Dishes
Russian bread
When hot, the crust is crisp and the butter and salty savor are clear; after cooling, it may become chewier, but the flavor may also fade, and the base may be oily.
Milk-cream bun
The bread is soft and springy, with a rich, smooth, not-too-sweet milk-cream filling; chilled and room-temperature versions each have their own character, though the texture may also be dry.
Sponge cake
The whole boxed sponge cake is light and airy, not very sweet, and easy to eat.
