Whip the heavy cream separately.

Combine the filling with the whipped cream and refrigerate while preparing the layers.

Whip 5 egg whites with 5 tablespoons of sugar, add 1 tablespoon of flour, half a packet of baking powder, 10 tablespoons of ground hazelnuts, and 3 tablespoons of prepared filling.

Pour the batter into a baking dish lined with parchment paper and bake for 20 minutes at 180°C (356°F).

Repeat this process to make three layers.

In a small pot, combine 200 ml of water, 200 g of sugar, and 30 ml of rum. Cook for 5 minutes, then pour over the layers.

Allow to cool.

Layer the cake with the prepared filling: layer-filling-layer-filling-layer, finishing and decorating the cake with filling.
