When it comes to Russia, it's always a matter of extremes: soul-sucking Communism and unrestrained hedonism, severe winters and midnight sun, and in today's example: awesomely, dizzyingly extreme cakes.

Bon Appetit or, as they say in the Russia, Приятного аппетита!

I'll eat my hat if you've ever seen a cake like this before.
