Ready made cakes are full of preservatives. It's not that difficult to make your own cakes from scratch putting pure ingredients. The ready made ones are more fancy but I think it's the gesture that counts and not the appearance.

Ingredients
  • 1 dose of sponge cake (see recipe) (without cocoa)
  • 1 dose of pastry cream (see recipe) (with cocoa)
  • 1 dose of whipping cream (see recipe)
  • syrup
  • 1 part sugar
  • 1 part water
  • lemon juice (boil for 5 minutes)
  • Ingredients you may use for decoration:
  • blanched almonds baked in the oven
  • green citrus in syrup
  • cherries
  • chocolate
  • anything else you like

Directions
  1. When the sponge cake has cooled down we cut into two pieces and wet it with the citrus syrup (or any other syrup, see also spoon sweets) which we have diluted with a little water or milk. If we like we can also make syrup by ourselves and keep it in the fridge for similar use.
  2. After cutting cake, place again in the string form and Insert cream in the middle.
  3. Put some cherries on cream (without syrup) place the other sponge cake on top and let it cool down.
  4. When it has cooled remove string form and spread whipping cream with a knife.
  5. Decorate as you like grating some chocolate, or melting chocolate on top, adding spoon fruit on top such as cherries, etc.
