Mrs Lee's napoleon

We had great fun making this napoleon. I have to thank my friend Florence for teaching me to make this. This is the best napoleon I have had since our Montreal days in the 80s : layers of crispy buttery pastry, whip cream, sponge cake and mango. The slightly salty flakes and the just right sweetness of the soft sponge give interesting sense of taste . The fragrance of the Australian mango adds another dimension to the flavour and it goes so well with the cream. Satisfying yet never filling. The magical thing is that it stayed crispy after a whole day in the fridge!
