“Kulich (right) are depicted pashka pyramidal (left) and on the table.” http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%91%E3%82%B9%E3%83%8F_(%E8%8F%93%E5%AD%90)

In the Russian Orthodox tradition, pashka is usually molded in the form of a truncated pyramid (a symbol of the Church; also said to represent the Tomb of Christ). It is traditionally made in a wooden mould assembly called "пасочница" (pasotchnitza) that can be taken apart for cleaning; but more modern materials, such as plastics, are used nowadays.

This practice was considered more effective when some portion of the victim's hair or nails were added to the wax figure, thus strengthening the connection with its actual subject.
