This cake contains all my favorite autumn flavors with a prominent apple flavor perfectly balanced with vanilla and pecan!

I wanted to combine a mix of different textures for this cake, which is why it contains crumble, pastry cream, fruit compote and praliné, which really make the cake irresistible! 

Happy baking <3
