Tips
To get the correct result of a very soft cake, you should use plenty of ‘cream’ for the filling, because otherwise the cake may be too dry.
Trivia
The historical origins of this dessert are in a marriage that took place in the late fifteenth century: that between Francis II of Gonzaga and Isabella d'Este. During the wedding feast the assembled nobility appreciated this cake to such an extent that it has remained unchanged for centuries, and even today is still prepared according to the traditional recipe.
