Dessert at Dinara Kasko’s house is always a surprise. She might serve what looks like a golf ball. Or the dessert may look like swaying pink pyramids. Once it even looked like red cherries piled inside an invisible box!
All of these strange and beautiful structures are actually edible cakes. Kasko designs and makes them in her kitchen in Kharkiv, Ukraine. On the outside, they resemble geometric forms or familiar objects. But inside are layers of delicious sponge cake and fillings such as chocolate mousse, cream, nuts, and fruit.
“I want to surprise people,” Kasko says. Her cakes are influenced by her passion for geometry. Before she became a pastry chef, she trained and worked as an architect. But Kasko loved baking cakes for her family and experimenting with the recipes.
