Marlenka Honey Cake

Marlenka is a renowned brand of honey cakes and desserts based on a traditional Armenian family recipe. The brand was established in 2003 in the Czech Republic by Gevorg Avetisjan, an Armenian-born entrepreneur who named the cake after his mother and daughter. What began as a small-scale family operation using a single oven has transformed into a global success story, with the brand now being synonymous with the legendary "Honey Miracle" cake across Europe and beyond.

All Marlenka products are manufactured in a state-of-the-art facility located in Frýdek-Místek, Czech Republic. This production site features unique, fully automated baking lines specially designed for the brand's signature layered cakes, allowing for large-scale production without the use of artificial preservatives or colors. The cakes are famous for their exceptionally long shelf life, achieved through natural ingredients like honey and specialized packaging technologies.

The brand remains under the ultimate ownership of its founder, Gevorg Avetisjan, and his family. As of 2026, the company continues to operate independently as Marlenka International s.r.o., maintaining its headquarters in the Czech Republic while exporting its wide variety of honey-based cakes, nuggets, and pastries to over 50 countries worldwide.
