Old Times Slice Cakes

After making the Rosy Birthday cake for my elder daughter, I was left with half packet of whipping cream. Since I needed to clear it soon, I decided to make these Old Times Slice Cakes that I love to eat during my childhood days. Making these cakes needed a bit of time and patience - I baked 2 square sponge cakes and sandwiched with whipping cream. It was also a little tricky to slice it as the cream will squeeze out so the best is to put the cake into the fridge before slicing. I just love the beautiful and taste of these Old Times Slice Cakes so much!
