   Let the hot golden cakes cool down.

    We collect the cake - we impregnate the cocoa cakes and lubricate the cream between them. We set aside the cake to soak in the cream.

    The finished mastic should be in the consistency of a dense dough.

    Cut out a small green ribbon and wrap it in the middle of the bow. The bow is ready, we leave it to dry.
