Cake from ready-made puff pastry
Description
Delicious baked treat for the whole family. The undeniable advantage of this pastry is its simplicity, but such a cake made with ready-made puff pastry should rest overnight at home to soak in the filling properly. By the way, the cream can be not only custard, but also made from condensed milk and butter, for example. Serve with tea or coffee.
