Karpatka is a traditional Polish cream pie filled with vanilla milk pudding or custard. It is sometimes composed of two different types of pastry; the base layer could be made of choux pastry or shortcrust pastry and can be thinly covered with marmalade and thick cream, then topped with a sheet of choux pastry.[1] The dessert takes its name from the mountain-like pleated shape of the powdered choux pastry which resembled the snowy peaks of the Carpathian Mountains – Karpaty in Polish.[2] The dish is often dusted with icing sugar.[1]

The origins of the dessert are unclear; it most likely emerged at the turn of the 1950s and 1960s, but its popularity only became widespread in the 1970s and 1980s.[3] The official name "karpatka" was first coined or recorded in 1972 by a group of philology students.[3][4] Traditionally, one large slice of the pie was served with coffee or tea.

There are "karpatka" baking mixes available in shops across Poland. In 1995, "Karpatka" became a trade mark registered for a company called Delecta for the determination of cream powder in the Polish Patent Office.

Карпатка (польск. Karpatka) — традиционный польский торт [1] или пирожное с кремом, наполненное молочно-ванильным пудингом или заварным кремом. Обычно состоит из двух разных видов теста: базовый слой из песочного теста покрыт мармеладом и густым кремом, затем лист заварного теста [2]. Десерт получил свое название от напоминающей гору складчатой формы заварного теста, посыпанного пудрой, что напоминает снежные вершины Карпатских гор [3][2].
