I love cakes that don’t require a lot of fuss. I’m not very good with dough, but here it’s ready. Of course, the housewives will say that you need to make the dough yourself... well, apparently, I’m not a good enough housewife, it’s better for me to buy the dough than to waste a lot of time and flour. But I’ll definitely make this cake, there’s nothing complicated about it.

It turned out to be a delicious Napoleon. I would still recommend adding butter to the cream.

And in my memory, “Napoleon” was prepared at home from the thinnest cakes, which were prepared for future use and hidden from us children higher up, on the cupboard. The delicious custard was spread generously onto 10 cake layers and left to soak until the morning.... How difficult it was to wait until it was finally cut! I think that at that time everyone made their own dough, cream, and in general a lot of tasty things - in childhood everything was delicious, as it seems now
