Baba with Vanilla Cream Sauce

Prepare a baba cake as previously described, and when removed from the mould and laid on a dish, cut it into six equal parts. Take a small quantity of apricot marmalade, taking one piece of the cake in the hand and cover the sides where cut with the marmalade, spreading it smoothly with a knife. Then arrange the six pieces together on a dish, giving them the same form as before. Serve with vanilla cream sauce.
