Lenochka, from your photographs it is impossible not to recognize the author! As always, delicious! Kefir really makes the cakes unusually soft and airy. Somewhere in the stash I have a couple of recipes for kefir: one cake made from custard cakes in packets (from the distant 90s), the other with berry jam syrup. And it was incredibly tasty!))

A gorgeous cake, although it’s not very difficult to prepare and the ingredients are affordable. It will be possible to bake it for the New Year to please the guests.

Why do you extinguish soda with vinegar if kefir does it well? Please answer, is it necessary to extinguish the soda in this cake?

Please tell me if it is possible to use 4% fermented baked milk instead of kefir. It is also a fermented milk product. No time to go buy kefir
