Description

The recipe won't take much time. I present to you a simple cake recipe covered with jelly. The preparation process should be divided into several stages: 1. Preparing the gelatin, 2. Making the sponge cake, 3. Creamy mousse, 4. Lime jelly. If you don't feel like bothering with lime, you can use ready-made jelly. Good luck. Serve chilled.
