Problems with the article

[edit]

As a native of a country where we bake and eat it: no, it's not Israeli and yes, it is a cake. 109.173.159.173 (talk) 09:42, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Krantz"

[edit]

Why is the image in this article labeled "Krantz" instead of "Babka?" Jarble (talk) 02:52, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The image apparently depicts a krantz cake instead of a Babka; is this actually a different kind of pastry? Jarble (talk) 02:56, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Kokosh

[edit]

Is this not distinct from Babka? Drsruli (talk) 22:03, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Do you really need a citation to עוגת שמרים?

[edit]

It's just what it translates to. 80.112.169.138 (talk) 20:24, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, Google translate thinks that is a "danish," but could very well be wrong or possible the word is the same. I do think a source for the differences between Israeli and New York babka would be good. A danish usually is a buttery, yeasted, croissant-like puff pastry which has fruit and/or cream custard filling. A babka, by contrast, is actually more like a sweet braided bread, usually marbled with layers of chocolate or cinnamon. I can see both are somewhat similar to a rugelach.
