Few people know how to make an Elephant's Tear cake, so today I will share this recipe with you. This cake is very original and unusual thanks to the delicate honey sponge cake and banana filling.

Cooking description:

I assure you, this cake will become your favorite, as the combination of delicate cream, sweet bananas and airy honey biscuit will not leave anyone indifferent! I strongly recommend that you use heavy cream and sour cream when making your cake, as they are much easier to whip into a tight cream.
