When I posted this cake on Instagram several days ago, one of my friends who’s made this cake before left me a comment and I just have to share it with you.
“Love this recipe. It’s even better than the Napoleon cakes I tried in Paris! Seriously.”
I don’t know what Parisian Napoleons’ taste like, but I totally believe her, because a cake can not get better than this!
