Combine flour, sugar, salt, and cardamom in a mixing bowl.

Add melted butter and eggs to the flour mixture, then pour in the yeast mixture.

Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface until smooth, about 5-10 minutes.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

Divide the dough into equal pieces and shape into balls.

Place the dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 10-15 minutes.

Allow the buns to cool completely on a wire rack.

Cut the tops off the buns and hollow out a small portion of the insides.

Fill each bun with almond paste and whipped cream mixture.

Replace the tops and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
