Marshmallow biscuit cake is a delicate and airy treat that combines classic sponge cake, creamy frosting, and the lightness of marshmallows. Such cakes are believed to originate from European pastry traditions, where the balance of textures and flavors is valued. The taste of this dessert is rich and harmonious: the sweetness of condensed milk intertwines with the slight tartness of cherries, while soft marshmallows add an amazing lightness. This cake is perfect for special occasions and celebrations, as its festive appearance and refined taste leave no one indifferent. It is especially good after soaking in the fridge when the layers become one and the textures even softer. This recipe allows for experimentation by adding different fruits or even chocolate sponge for a vibrant contrast.

Next, we take out the finished biscuit, cut it into pieces as much as possible. You can also bake another one with cocoa to alternate the colors.

Next, we spread cream on the cake layer, placing cherries around the edges and in the center with pieces of marshmallow that can be cut out. In fact, you can put anything and however you like, completely different fruits and even without marshmallow, but I did it this way.
- Cherry (sour): 800 g
- Zefir (marshmallow): 3 pieces

We fill all the layers as we like and decorate the top with something. I wrote with sugar pencils and sprinkled grated chocolate.

It's better to do it at night so it can soak in the fridge.
