Autumn is a harvest season. The fruitful autumn reveals the joy of a bumper harvest; the golden leaves full of trees are refreshing and pleasant; the fragrant autumn fruits have brilliant colors.

This cake of mine is a combination of Napoleon cake + Mont Blanc cake. The golden and crisp Napoleon cake is like a land covered with golden leaves, with colorful fruits, showing a golden autumn harvest.

Autumn is the best time to eat chestnuts. Mont Blanc cake should be the most suitable dessert. Sponge cake bottom with creamy chestnut puree is sweet and delicious. It is a delicacy that must not be missed in autumn.

Combining the two desserts together, there are not only the splendid harvest scene in autumn, but also the deliciousness of autumn.

Tips:

This cake seems to have a lot of steps, as long as the operation process is properly allocated, it can be completed quickly. You can make chestnut puree first, then make meringue, and make sponge cake when the meringue dough is relaxed.
If you accidentally break the dough when making the pastry, you can use a little flour to make up the broken place.
