Cream topping
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. The "Plombir" cream is based on custard cream with the addition of whipped heavy cream. It holds its shape well and doesn't run, so it can be used not only for filling but also for decorating cakes. This cream makes a very delicious "Napoleon" cake, as well as various sponge cakes and rolls. The finished dessert can be served at the table.
