MATYÓ CAKE
Matyó Cake transforms the rich visual language of Hungarian Matyó folk art into a contemporary celebration cake and reusable decorative mould system. Traditional floral motifs are carefully reinterpreted as precise relief patterns that flow continuously across the tiers, creating a distinctive and coherent surface design. The project brings cultural heritage, pastry design and product development together in a refined form created for modern, premium celebrations.
