What they are

«Yagodka-Malinka» — «little raspberry» — are sweets in the bird's milk (ptichye moloko) tradition: a light, airy soufflé whipped through with raspberry, coated in chocolate glaze and finished with a scatter of crunchy crumb. The bright pink centre against the dark glaze looks every bit as cheerful as it tastes.

The 380 g box wears Glavtorg's Gzhel-style design — white and cobalt blue with a firebird — so it goes straight to the table or into a gift bag as it is. Bird's milk sweets are at their best slightly cool: ten minutes in the fridge and the soufflé firms up while the glaze breaks with a snap.

Ingredients

Sweets of this style are typically made from sugar and glucose syrup whipped with egg white and a setting agent (agar or gelatine), flavoured with raspberry, then coated in a chocolate glaze (sugar, cocoa, vegetable fats, soya lecithin) and topped with crumb.

One for the teapot, one for the guest — and somehow the box is already half empty.
