Cake "Plombir" without pastries from the charming Olga Matvey turns out to be budgetary and easy to prepare. At the same time, the taste and aroma of this delicacy cannot be conveyed in words. Instead of butter, cold margarine can be used. Also, instead of the cream "Plombier" you can cook custard, but then it will be an analogue of "Napoleon".
