Cake "Turtle"

The peculiarity and uniqueness of the classic "Turtle" cake is that it does not consist of one whole sponge cake, but of individual cakes laid out in the form of a turtle shell. The sponge cakes are soaked in cream and covered with glaze. The invention of sponge cakes is attributed to English sailors. Such pastries did not spoil for a long time during long sea voyages. Usually, the "Turtle" cake is prepared with sour cream. Kiwi, prunes, and nuts are often added to the recipe.
