DeleteWhat is the history of this unusually named cake, Mila?
ReplyDeleteOkay, apparently it's not an authentic Russian dish...that's what I found on Wikipedia - In Poland, Jan Wedel, owner of the E. Wedel Company, developed the first Ptasie mleczko in 1936.[2] Wedel's inspiration for the name of the confectionery came from his voyages to France, when he asked him self: "What could bring greater happiness to a man who already has everything?" Then he thought: "Maybe only bird milk.".

Hi Mila,
ReplyDeleteCan we use powdered sugar? Please, let me know. Yuri.
Hi Mila,
ReplyDeleteAlso could you use whipped butter?
And If we use powdered sugar instead of regular, should we use the same amount?
Yuri.
Hi, I believe you can use whipped butter, I'm not so sure about the powdered sugar though... Let me know how it turned out! :-)
