Pashina Pastry owner Olena Romanko said she may never be able to return to her home. SanAntonio SATX SanAntonioTX SanAntonioFood SanAntonioRestaurants UkraineWar Ukraine️

The baked goods at Pashina include options such as kolaches, pelmeni, honey cake and Kyiv cake.

Her stoic demeanor makes her appear impervious to the heat as she portions out freshly kneaded dough, prepping for the next day. Indeed, Ramanko said she prefers hot weather to the cold of her former home, Oleshki, a city of 25,000 people in the Kherson region of southern Ukraine. Like many of the new Ukrainian arrivals in San Antonio, she was displaced by the Russian invasion.

The baked goods at Pashina, 250 Hildebrand Ave., stretch beyond the savory options to include honey cake and Kyiv cake, a specialty of Ukraine's capital. Both are favorites of the Alamo City's growing Ukrainian community, and Romanko said they're also finding an audience with sweet-toothed locals.
