Place baked cake base on a wet dish towel and roll up into a jelly roll shape. Once the cake base is cooled, unroll it and remove parchment paper. Cake base is fragile, be careful when you work with it.

Dissolve gelatin in water over a very gentle heat. While heating the liquid, dip your little finger to the liquid to check temperature - it should not be hot. Whisk cream and sugar and prepare whipped cream.

8. 

Add a few spoons of stirred cream cheese to dissolved gelatin and stir. After that pour gelatin with cream cheese back to the remaining cream cheese and stir. At the end blend the whipped cream in. Place the filling from cream cheese and whipped cream in the refrigerator for a few minutes until we cut the cake into equal layers.

9. Build a cake

Lay some cling film in a deep bowl (diameter 28 cm, height 15 cm). Place slices of jelly-roll at the bottom and sides of the bowl.

Put the cream cheese filling in the middle of the jelly-roll bowl. On top of the filling place remaining jelly-roll slices and leftovers from the edges which overtop the filling. Press the surface lightly and gently.
