Carolyn,It really doesn’t matter. I would prob do the one without sour cream.It’s more stiff.

Do you recommend Cream #1 or Cream #2 to finish the top and sides of the cake?

The first one is pastry cream and the other one with sour cream is not..but if you’re concerned about the raw egg in the cream, you can always put it over water bath for few minutes..make sure it cools all the way before adding it to butter..

Hi Nadia, Thank YOU so much for publishing the recipe. I remember baking one of my favorite cakes with my grandma. For the life of me I couldn't locate the recipe as I've been living / growing up in the States; the great memories are there along with recipies I so wanted to locate.
Thank you kindly. God Bless you and your family!
All the best,
-Leanna
