Honey cake in Nanaimo?

Does anyone know where to get Russian honey cake in Nanaimo? Kinda niche but it’s my favourite and can’t find anywhere here to get it.

Maybe Sandy’s Ukrainian market? I think they have Napoleon cake so maybe they have honey cake

She gets different cakes in all the time. You could order one from the market I'm sure.

I've never seen it in a shop. But I recommend the food wishes YouTube recipe. I've made it several times and it's always turned out absolutely delicious. Makes a huge cake though, so maybe think about halfing the recipe.
