Garash (Template:Langx) is a chocolate cake from the Bulgarian cuisine. It was created by the Austro-Hungarian Kosta Garash in 1885, in Ruse, Bulgaria,[1] during the time he managed the grand hotel “Islah Hane”, which was located next to the residence of the Bulgarian knyaz Alexander of Battenberg. Royal personas such as Carol I of Romania, Milan I of Serbia and Oscar II were guests at the hotel. Kosta Garash created his famous "Garash" cake for such high-ranking receptions.

"Garash" cake has recently become a favorite of people with Gluten-related disorders since no wheat flour is used in the recipe.

Preparation

Five 2 mm-thin round cake plates are made from a batter consisting of 200 g ground walnut kernels, 8 egg whites and 220 g crystal or powdered sugar. After baking and cooling, they are arranged one on top of the other and frosted in between, on top, and on the sides with a frosting (Ganache) made of sweet cream and chocolate. Afterwards, the cake is covered with chocolate icing.
