Use a bowl to cut out a cake round. Line the inside of the bowl with plastic wrap.
Use a bread knife to slice rounds from the rolled cake. Line the inside of the bowl with the rolled cake rounds. Push the rounds together so there are no spaces in between.
Fill the lined bowl with the mousse or other filling.
Trim the cake round so that it fits on top of the filling and is not visible from the outside. Brush the cake round with flavored syrup (optional).
Press the cake round in the bowl over the filling. Chill for at least 5 hours.
Before serving or decorating, brush the cake with apricot glaze.
Decorate the cake with whipped cream just before serving.
