Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the puff pastry and cut into desired shapes. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.
  2. Allow the baked pastry to cool completely on a wire rack to maintain crispiness.
  3. In a saucepan, mix fresh berries with granulated sugar and cornstarch. Heat until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. In a chilled bowl, beat heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  5. Layer cooled pastry with whipped cream and berry filling until all layers are stacked, finishing with whipped cream on top.
  6. Cover the assembled cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
