This cake is in memory of Keshet (meaning rainbow) Casatotti-Kalfa (21) and Motti Zoherman (73), who were murdered by Hamas terrorists at the Nova festival in Israel on October 7th, 2023.
Keshet had a gunshot wound, and Motti tried to help him and drive him to the hospital. On the way there they encountered more Hamas terrorists, and they were both murdered. They didn’t know each other before but died together.
