1. Trim off sponge top and slice into 7; keeping slices in order.
Place the first bottom sponge slice onto a large and flat plate.
Do not moisturize the bottom sponge with the syrup. Pipe out
a layer of matcha diplomate cream ≈ 0.40''/1cm thickness. Top
with a second layer of sponge and with a pastry brush
moisturize it with the cherry punch. Add a layer of diplomat
cream. Repeat this step once, and then add the frozen cherry
marmalade disk. Pipe out a ring of cream surrounding the
marmalade. Repeat until done, coat the cake and freeze for 30
min to set. Add another layer of matcha Chantilly. Cover the
cake with the chilled chocolate shavings and dot with
rosettes. Plant some pitted fresh cherries. Thanks to the
gelatin, this cake can be kept frozen for up to 3 weeks; in this
case, leave it to thaw overnight in the refrigerator, add
cherries and serve. The green forest cake can be refrigerated
for up to 3 days. Enjoy!
