"Napoleon Cake is a classic Russian cake, made of very thin and flaky puff pastry cake layers and a smooth, rich and luscious pastry cream in between the layers.
The origin of Napoleon cake is debated, but it evolved from the French pastry mille-feuille (thousand leaves) and gained its name in Russia to commemorate the 1812 victory over Napoleon. While the French version is a classic mille-feuille with puff pastry and cream, the Russian Napoleon cake features more layers, a distinct crumb, and was created in 1912 to celebrate the centenary of Russia's defeat of Napoleon's invasion. Some theories also suggest that "Napoleon" is a mispronunciation of "Neapolitan," referring to layered desserts from Naples."
Hope you had a GREAT Celebration! 🥂
Have a lovely week everyone! 🍁
