- Using a fine grater, remove the zest from one lemon and send it to milk.
- Bring the liquid to a boil, and then filter the milk through a fine sieve. Let the filtered milk cool naturally to room temperature.

- The cream is considered ready at the moment when it reaches a homogeneous consistency.
Cake assembly
- Turn the biscuit upside down and carefully cut off the top.
- Put the “hat” to the side, and remove the pulp from the bottom of the workpiece.
- Soak the bottom of the biscuit with apricot liquor or juice from canned apricots.
- We fill the workpiece with the prepared cream, previously setting aside about 50 g.
- Soak the top with liquor or juice, and then close the cake with it.
- Coat the entire cake with a thin layer of the remaining cream.
