Put the mixture in a pan on low heat and as soon as the cream thickens, remove it from the heat and let it cool.
Whip the cream until stiff, add the icing sugar and incorporate it into the cold custard, mixing gently from the bottom up.
Blend the pineapple and mix it together with its liquid and liqueur.
Cut the sponge cake into 2 disks and blend the top.
Place the bottom of the sponge cake in a tray and sprinkle it with the pineapple juice and liqueur.
Arrange the fruit cut into small pieces on the sponge cake.
Spread the chantilly cream on the fruit and sprinkle with the smoothie sponge cake and the toasted almond flakes.
Garnish with fresh whole fruit to taste.
