Biscuit translated from French literally means "baked twice".
In the Middle Ages, biscuit was the food of English sailors. Since there is no butter in the biscuit dough, it keeps well and is not susceptible to mold. Sailors took biscuits with them on the voyage and for a long time they did not deteriorate.

Did you know that biscuit used to be a common dish of sailors? Yes, yes, I knew about this delicacy much later, and the first queen to whom it appeared on the table was Queen Elizabeth. This is despite the fact that this dessert has a French name. We have already tried biscuit dough more than once in various culinary masterpieces, and a different result was obtained precisely from the impregnation, decoration and filling of the dessert. And since this has such an important role, then let's talk about what cream for a biscuit cake is. After all, not every recipe is suitable for this cake.
The peculiarity of biscuit dough is that it is prepared without butter and sour cream, i.e. no fat at all. As a result, the finished cake has a dense and slightly harsh texture. This is not a porous sour cream or manna. Therefore, the cream for the biscuit should be able to saturate the baked cake and also keep its shape when you decorate the dessert with this cream.
Here are the tasks set by the confectioners for the creams we know.
But there are universal cream mixtures, for example, cottage cheese, creamy, yoghurt, sour cream. We will analyze their recipes below.
Sour cream is a very affordable product. Depending on the ingredients added, it can take on different flavors. But in any case, this cut will always saturate the dessert well and make its taste very delicate.
Ingredients:
Better to take homemade non-acidic sour cream. It is thicker and fatter than the store one.
Add sour cream, sugar and vanillin to the container and start mixing everything with a mixer. We mix until the sugar completely turns into sour cream and ceases to be felt.
If the sour cream is very greasy, then do not work with the mixer for long, so as not to interrupt the sour cream and not create oil. When whipping, the sour cream will become thicker.
That, in general, is the whole cooking process.
But there are times when the sour cream mixture turned out to be liquid, then we add a bag of thickener to it.
If you are in favor of avoiding chemical additives in food, then you can do, it shows how to do without the thickener.
A sponge cake can be turned into a masterpiece using any of the creams listed below, most often it is protein, curd, cream and custard. I want to cite another kind of very affordable cream that resembles an ice cream. But it is not suitable for soaking biscuits, it turns out to be dry. It is used more in decorating desserts. And you can soak the cakes with syrup.
Semolina cake cream:
Cook ordinary semolina porridge, let it boil for a minute.
Cover the porridge with cling film so that a crust does not appear.
Add sugar to soft butter, or even better, use powdered sugar and beat together with porridge.
And it can already be used, grains of semolina in the cream are not felt at all.
This cream is also good with lemon. The lemon needs to be boiled with boiling water, peeled from the peel and film and chopped with a blender with added sugar.
This additive is added at the stage of pouring the porridge into the oil mixture.
This cream is unusual because it gives sourness and freshness.
Gelatin can be added to the yogurt cream, then it turns out to be of a denser consistency if it stands in the cold, or it can be cooked without gelatin. I described the version of the cream with gelatin in this article, so I do not want to repeat myself.
Ingredients:
Keep both products in the cold before cooking. Remember that warm cream will separate into two fractions (butter and whey) under the influence of the mixer, we do not need this. We do not translate products, but create culinary masterpieces.
And we begin to whip with a blender, whisk or mixer the cream until soft peaks.
You can add powdered sugar, this is already to your taste. When soft peaks are obtained, start spreading 300 grams of thick yogurt and continue to mix it all. Turn off the mixer when the consistency of the cream has reached solid peaks. When the mass is thick and dense and does not pour out of the plate.
Now you can soak a biscuit with it or decorate its front part.
You can also soak a biscuit roll with this composition.
A truly stable cream is obtained using the recipe below. And, if you are a master and masterfully own a culinary syringe, then you will really like this mass in your work.
Ingredients:
There are two rules for working with butter cream: we work only with a cold product and start the mixer at the minimum speed.
We will start the preparation of this magic cream, of course, with whipping cream, gradually adding sugar or powder. Whisk until soft peaks.
Now we are dealing with cheese. Cut it into pieces, add vanillin and a couple of spoons with whipped cream to it and mix.
Combine both masses in a deep container for a couple of minutes.
You will get a thick texture and delicate taste. With this cream, you can coat the cakes from the inside and create any shape on them.
If you want to save on store-bought Philadelphia cheese, then cook it over this.
Here is one of the most common options for decorating and spreading a biscuit, created without effort. Choose condensed milk to taste - boiled, or simple according to GOST. The taste will be all the same - very pleasant. Just look at the proportions, for some, a whole can of condensed milk in cream may seem like overkill. Then you can dose the amount of condensed milk poured in to your taste.
Ingredients:
Beat the butter to slightly change its structure and saturate with oxygen.
Pour condensed milk into the same container.
Beat for one minute at low speed. The cream is ready.
Condensed milk in creams acts as a substitute for sugar and gives a pleasant delicate flavor to the dessert. Moreover, this cream turns out to be less thick than from cream. The more convenient it will be used both inside the cake and outside, when the gelatin is taken.
Ingredients:
Beat the sour cream a little and add the condensed milk.
Pour the vanilla sugar into the mixture.
After that, pour in the melted gelatin.
That's the whole cooking process. The mixture will not run in the refrigerator and will be absorbed well into the cake.
In milk, the cream is not only whipped, but also boiled. It is called "custard". Of course, the manufacturing technology is not entirely familiar, but it is perfect for both biscuit and Napoleon cake.
Do you think this is difficult to do? And I tell you that no, the main thing is not to forget to stir it, as is the case with semolina.
Ingredients:
Combine an egg with sugar with a blender, pour two tablespoons of flour into the same mass and gradually pour in cold milk.
Pour into a saucepan and brew over medium heat, not forgetting to stir, otherwise, when it becomes thick, it may burn or give you lumps as a result.
The finished cream has a consistency similar to liquid semolina porridge.
There you also need to put butter, already softened. Stir it until it is completely dissolved.
It is ready for soaking the cakes, but for further decoration, send a saucepan with the mixture to spend the night in the refrigerator.
Most often, fruits and berries are combined with a layer of cake and set aside for the final decoration.
If you don't like it when cherries color everything red and then blue juice, then it is better to make a chocolate cream with the addition of cream or snow-white, but using dye.
It is better to add cherries to the dough when baking, or put them on the creamy surface of the dessert.
It is also crushed with sour cream or curd cream and soaked in biscuit cakes.

Not a single person in the world knows all the cake recipes. And this is not surprising, because the cream for them can be made from a variety of products: from butter, cream, sour cream, condensed milk, chocolate, proteins, cottage cheese, berries, nuts. And if there are relatively few basic options for dough for cake layers, the fillings for cakes are so diverse that no pastry chef is able to learn their recipes. Moreover, many housewives make their own adjustments to the dish to make it even more delicious and unusual.
The process of preparing the filling for the cake depends entirely on the recipe chosen. Obviously, custard is made differently from protein or cottage cheese. For this reason, there are no common options and principles for making sweet cream. However, every pastry chef needs to know some points related to the choice and preparation of the filling for the cake.
Knowing the general principles of choosing the filling for the cake and the ingredients for it, you can safely get down to work, guided by the instructions accompanying a specific recipe.
Cooking method:
After the cream has been applied to the cakes, the cake must be refrigerated so that the filling hardens. This type of cream is the most common. Based on this recipe, a chocolate custard is also prepared. His recipe will differ in that two to three tablespoons of flour are replaced with the same amount of cocoa powder.
Cooking method:
You can add cocoa powder or berry syrup to sour cream. In this case, it will acquire a different color and aroma. When adding such ingredients to the sour cream filling, keep in mind that it is well absorbed, so the cakes will also acquire the appropriate shade. After applying sour cream, the cake must be refrigerated for at least an hour.
Cooking method:
The cream must be cooled before use, otherwise it will be too liquid. However, you should not cool it down until the end until it is applied to the cake. Otherwise, the filling may acquire a jelly-like consistency, making it difficult to use it for its intended purpose. This is not to say that curd cream is ideal for an interlayer of cakes, it is better to use it as a top layer.
Cooking method:
Chill the cream slightly until it thickens slightly. After applying the creamy filling, the cake should be refrigerated for several hours. Delicate and airy creamy filling is liked by both children and adults. You can decorate the cake covered with it with fresh berries, pieces of chocolate.
Cooking method:
The cream can also be prepared from cooked condensed milk. The above recipe was created when boiled condensed milk was not on sale, but today it has become quite simple to prepare condensed milk cake filling.
Cooking method:
Cooking method:
Chocolate cream can be used to soak the cakes as well as to decorate the cake.
Cooking method:
Delicate protein cream works well as the top layer of a cake. Eggs for him can only be taken fresh. Be sure to wash them before using them to avoid contracting a serious infectious disease. If you want to make the cream denser, you can add gelatin to it during cooking, after diluting it in a small amount of water. In this case, the filling is suitable for making the "Bird's milk" cake.
Cooking method:
This aromatic filling is suitable for making not only ordinary cakes, but also cheesecakes. If desired, chopped nuts or chocolate chips can be added to the cream.
Cooking method:
If the cream seemed too liquid, you can pour a little semolina into it and beat again. The cream turns out to be very fragrant, has a pleasant shade. A cake stuffed with banana cream can be garnished with slices of fresh bananas, but this should be done just before serving the dessert.
To give the filling additional shades of taste and aroma, you can add coffee, jam or jam, citric acid, orange peel, cinnamon and other ingredients to it.
Fillings intended for cakes can just as well be used to fill cakes. Some of the creams can be served as a separate dish, laid out in bowls. In particular, you can do this if you have not calculated and prepared too much filling.
There are several types of biscuit cream. Usually cakes made from such dough are impregnated with sour cream, butter, protein, cottage cheese or custard. Their basic recipes are very simple and consist of only two or three ingredients, and the process of making a cream is reduced to a simple whipping of products. So, for sour cream you only need sour cream and sugar. If you make the simplest butter cream, then condensed milk and butter will become its main components. And for a protein cream, you need egg whites and powdered sugar. More complex creams, such as custard, take longer to cook and contain more components: eggs, milk, sugar, flour, butter. But if you use various flavors, dyes, all kinds of additives, you can endlessly create a variety of recipes for delicious creams, each time surprising guests and loved ones with new desserts. You can add cocoa powder to the same cream with condensed milk, and you get a delicious chocolate layer for cakes or biscuit cakes.
Often, creams become not only delicious filling for cakes and other confectionery products. Lay out in beautiful bowls and decorated with nuts, dried fruits, fresh berries or chocolate, they become delicious desserts, loved by both children and adults.
A simple custard recipe. In addition to impregnating biscuit cakes, it can also be used as an independent dessert. This cream is good for filling various cakes, such as eclairs or rolls. And if you send the custard to the freezer, then it will make the most real ice cream. Add a little vanilla to improve the flavor and aroma of the cream.

Pay attention to the useful recommendations of experienced chefs who know how to make delicious biscuit cream, and then your cake will always be the highlight of any home celebration or holiday:

- Before preparing sour cream, excess liquid should be removed from sour cream. To do this, transfer it to a gauze folded in several layers, hang it so that the serum flows out. This procedure takes several hours. If you want to speed up the process, add a couple of tablespoons of dry cream when whipping sour cream. They will give the cream the necessary thickness.
- For the preparation of creams, it is best to use not sugar, but icing sugar. It is easy to make in a blender or buy it from the store.
