Actually, there are no "special" russian desserts. May be "варенье" - jam, or "пряники" - spice-cakes or "печенье" - cookies?

1. No, all kinds of 'jam' ('conserve' etc.) are sold here in any supermarket.Originally Posted by JJ
2. No, пряники are very much like ginger bread or German 'pfeffernuessen'. There are differences, but they are not essential. Печенья так вообще всякого навалом.
However, what I've newer seen produced outside Russia is "зефир". The closest thing is marshmallow, but it is much, much worse and is quite different, actually. Unfortunately, I don't think it is possible to make зефир (zephyr?) at home. A special gelling agent, agar agar, is crucial.
Another Russian (AFAIK) thing, somewhat related to зефир, is "Птичье молоко". It can be made with regular gelatine. Egg-whites, milk, gelatine and chocolate is virtaually all that you need.

Интересно, а "сахарную вату" в Австралии едят? В России я часто вижу ребятишек на улице с ней. А вот за границей не встречал...1. No, all kinds of 'jam' ('conserve' etc.) are sold here in any supermarket.

Едят, но не так часто как в России. Я видел в парках развлечения (theme parks).

Она тут даже консервированная, то есть, пакованная продается. Просто в магазинах.

Try "Сало в шоколаде". This one is a traditional Ukrainian dessert.

I don't think that any dessert is "common" -- if one is common, it stops being dessert in my opinion. But some desserts are considered Russian. These include the Russian pancakes (blinis, served with sweet filling), the Russian cakes (pirogi, with fruit stuffing). However, these are not all that common at dinner tables in Russia. Purists that they are, the Russians prefer them handcrafted, and it takes quite some time and effort (not to mention skill).
Good Russian-made chocolate is quite on par with good Belgian or Suisse chocolates, and is a lot cheaper.

I don't know if this is necessarily Russian, but my friends make Napoleon cake - a cake made of layered shell-type things with filling in between. Best cake I've ever eaten....ever.
Yay! I broke 200 posts!
Nobody knows for sure who invented the recipe for Napoleon cake, but if it is not Russian in origin, it has been thoroughly adopted by Russians. It's been popular in Russia since early 19th century, and is still popular.
To Zeus: I think that zephir can be made at home alright. Agar agar isn't that rare, at least in Russia. I am sure I saw it sold in stores.
Bliny (Блины) - pancakes as a traditional Russian dessert that you can make. They can be with any jam, honey, simply with sugar, sour cream. And also I don't know what about patty. All the other things which were named, are sweets and it is impossible or very difficult to make them yourself.
It seems every nation believes that pancakes is their own invention

Ну блинами с черной и красной икрой почему-то всех туристов кормят.
Hey hey, we certainly did invent pancakes! Just like we invented printing!

For crying out loud, what could be more natural than dropping some dough onto a hot flat stone? If there ever was an inventor of pancakes, it was Wilma bloody Flintstone!

Nitpicking: that's not sufficient for pancakes. You need butter or at least oil and smooth surface. Without that, you get a kind of bread, something similar to what they bake all around the Caucasus and Middle East.For crying out loud, what could be more natural than dropping some dough onto a hot flat stone?
