   Bake the cakes in turn in the oven, preheated to 200 degrees. Baked cakes are cut in shape.We smear the cakes with warm cream, which we put into a detachable form covered with foil so that the cream does not leak out.

   Grease the top of the cake with cream and sprinkle with crumbs from the cakes. We send it to the refrigerator for 10 hours. After the time has elapsed, carefully remove the mold and sprinkle the sides with the remaining crumbs. You can decorate the cake with chopped walnuts. We serve the Napoleon cake with hot drinks.
