Garash (Bulgarian: гараш) is a chocolate cake from the Bulgarian cuisine. It was created by the Austro-Hungarian Kosta Garash in 1885, in Ruse, Bulgaria,[1] during the time he managed the grand hotel “Islah Hane”, which was located next to the residence of the Bulgarian knyaz Alexander of Battenberg. Royal personas such as Carol I of Romania, Milan I of Serbia and Oscar II were guests at the hotel. Kosta Garash created his famous "Garash" cake for such high-ranking receptions.
