By popular demand, here's my BIRTHDAY CAKE 🎂. I previewed it in the short and in the post, and you loved it so much that I made a STEP-BY-STEP video tutorial on how to easily make it at home. It's delicious, authentic, and visually stunning!

Then what a satisfaction it is to make it yourself!

Follow my advice in the video and you'll get applause!

📌I divided the sponge cake into three 20 cm cake pans for baking. This will ensure a more optimal and quicker baking process and will avoid having to cut it; the layers will already be ready! If you have time, you can bake it in a single 20-22 cm pan!

Ingredients:
For the sponge cake:
6 eggs
120 g sugar
2 tablespoons boiling water (optional)
180 g plain flour
1 grated lemon
Vanilla

600 ml whipped cream (natural or vegetable)
600 g pastry cream
80 g melted dark chocolate

For the syrup:
500 ml water
100 ml rum or Strega liqueur (or other liqueur of your choice) or milk or fruit juice
50 g sugar

2 wafer paper sheets for the flowers
