Finnish

Etymology

kuiva (dry) +‎ kakku (cake)

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /ˈkui̯ʋɑˌkɑkːu/,
  • Rhymes: -ɑkːu
  • Hyphenation(key): kuiva‧kakku

Noun

kuivakakku

  1. A dry cake with no icing/frosting or layers, often but not necessarily a bundt cake.

Usage notes

  • In Finnish, cakes are usually named according to their ingredients, not their shape. The term kuivakakku however refers to the texture of the cake, and such cakes are often baked in a bundt pan (which has given the English name to the bundt cake), but also a straight mould may be used. A kuivakakku may also be called maustekakku, tiikerikakku, sokerikakku, sitruunakakku, and even hiekkakakku depending on its taste or appearance.
