1. The cooking time of the cake is excluding the time for impregnation and hardening of the cake. Pour gelatin for sour cream water (about 100 ml) for jelly and cherry compote (you can of course water, about 30 ml).

2. Prepare the fruit: if the cherries have pits, remove them and cut the icing in half (the delayed part of the cherries on the cake decoration). Take out half of the apricots, give the juice to drain, and cut them first horizontally, and then the lower part of the blocks (convex part should be smaller than the lower, we have it is the top of the cake). The picture shows how it should look like prepared fruits.

3. Knead biscuit dough, stretch it on a sheet in a thin layer. Bake at 180 degrees for 12-15 minutes. I baked in two stages, as the form was small, and the sheet was not.

4. Slightly more than half of sponge cake cut into small squares, from the rest of the biscuit molds squeezing "daisies" (trimming will add to the total weight in cake), is cut into two parts (these figures will go for decorating sides of cake).

5. Marshmallows cut into small cubes

6. Whisk sour cream with sugar and liqueur (of course without the latter can and do, but I'm always in the sour cream add some liqueur, the taste of the cream becomes thicker). Dissolve gelatin, cool it, mix with a small portion of the cream, and after that with the rest of the cream.

7. In a large bowl mix the biscuits, fruit, marshmallows and sour cream. You need to ensure that all ingredients are evenly mixed

8. spread the mixture into shape with the split edges. And put in the cold for 20 minutes. Cake grabbed a bit and decorate it with fruit (spread a little, pressing them to the fruit stuck to the cake and didn't come up when we pour the jelly). Sent in the cold for 15 minutes.

9. Compote boil, if necessary reported to the sugar, enter gelatin, dissolve it and remove from heat. Since the color of jelly I have is too dark, I added a few crystals of citric acid. Cooled jelly and pour the cake surface. It might take not the whole of the prepared Jell-o! Put in the cold to complete solidification of cake and jelly, it's at least another 2.5 hours. Once the cake hardens, remove it from the mould and round the sides of sponge biscuits.
