Russian President Vladimir Putin tried sochniki with fresh cheese from the Mashenka bakery near Moscow. Its owner Denis Maksimov spoke about this in a conversation with RIA Novosti.

“We sent pies with cabbage, onion eggs, with potatoes, there were puff pastry with fresh berries – with strawberries, cherries, and, in my opinion, sochniki. If I'm not mistaken, in the footage he is trying sochnik with cheese. It seems to me that it is him,” said the businessman.
Maksimov noted that for now he has no intention of changing the name of sochniki to cottage cheese “presidential”, although there are many such proposals from people, the bakery owner noted. However, the businessman believes that this is excessive and he does not want to speculate on the attention of the head of state.
On January 22, Mashenka Bakery prepared a food basket presumably for the special representative of US President Steve Witkoff. He went to Moscow to meet Putin. Delicious gift of traditional American desserts.
