Description

Crepe cake with delicate chocolate mousse
What is interesting of this cake? First, an unusual batter for crepes, which is baked in the oven with a light orange aroma. The taste is something between a traditional pancake and a biscuit. Secondly, air mega-chocolate cream, just melting in your mouth. It is spoonable. And third, the flavor combination. Dessert turns out to be very harmonious. And the sourness from the cranberry jam and apricot jam, bitterness from the cocoa and the sweetness from the meringue complete the idyll. The idea is taken from the Italian chef.
