Cake for the Princess
Description
The baking is simple and quick. For this cake, we'll need a sponge cake. You can buy ready-made cake layers at the store or bake them yourself at home. I decided to put in the effort—and the result delighted me and my loved ones! I'll definitely make this dessert again. Serve it cooled or slightly warm.

Now let's move on to the cream. Heat the milk. In a separate container, whisk together the egg and cornstarch. Pour this mixture into the milk, add a pinch of zest, and stir continuously. As soon as it thickens, remove from the heat and let it cool.
