Wuzetka (pronounced ) is a chocolate sponge and cream pie which originated in Warsaw, Poland. Its name is probably derived from the Warsaw W-Z Route, on which the confectionery that first began to sell the dessert in the late 1940s was located. Traditional to Varsovian cuisine, the dessert was exclusively served by cafés and restaurants in Warsaw, but soon became a beloved home-made food in Poland.
==History== The dessert most likely originated at the turn of the 1940s and 1950s in one of Warsaw's newly founded sweet shops. However, the precise origin of the name is debatable; historians and certain sources agree that the cake was probably named after the Warsaw W-Z Route (East-West Route), which ran next to the shop. Other sources state that the name comes from the acronym "WZC", which either stood for the Warsaw Confectionery Plants () or for the Polish term "pastry with chocolate" ('). The abbreviation "WZK" for "pastry with cream" (') is also a possibility.
