Melt the nougat in a water bath. Chop the smacks a little bit smaller and mix them together. Spread the mixture on the bottom of a springform pan (26 cm Ø), press down a little and chill until the bottom is firm. For the cream, pour half milk and half cream into a tall mixing bowl rinsed with hot water. Add half of the cream powder and stir briefly with the whisk of the hand mixer on the lowest setting.
Then whip for approx. 3 minutes on highest setting until creamy. Spread on the cake base. Chill for approx. 1 hour. Prepare the remaining milk, cream and cream powder in the same way. Refine with orange liqueur and pour into a small bowl. Chill for about 1 hour. Cut out balls or cams from the liqueur mousse and place them on the cake. Refrigerate again for about 1 hour. Before serving, decorate the cake with crumbled meringue and, if desired, with carambola.
