ingredients
Sponge cake
4 egg whites
2 egg yolks
100g sugar
120g cake flour
30g butter
50g whole milk
pink food coloring
Cream
450 g heavy cream
50 g sugar
Other
A pound of strawberries
Tools
6 inch square cake pan, lined with parchment paper
preparation
create a water bath with freshly boiled water
combine eggs and sugar in a bowl, preferably in a metal mixing bowl. Place into hot water bath until temperature reaches about 40°C (104°F).
Beat with a hand mixer until you reach ribbon stage.
add sifted flour and fold in gently until no lumps remain.
heat the milk and butter in the microwave until the butter is fully melted. Then add some of the batter mixture to it, mix well, and pour everything back into the batter mixture. Mix evenly.
add in pink food coloring if desired. I used 2-3 drops of super concentrated food coloring from Michael’s.
pour into a lined cake pan, gently tap out bubbles, and & bake in a preheated over @ 320°F for 30 – 35 minutes. Insert toothpick in the cake to make sure it’s fully cooked before taking it out.
let cake cool completely on a wire rack. Take off parchment paper as soon as it comes out.
slice into 3 layers once fully cooled.
For the bottom 2 cake layers, spread whipped cream evenly & arrange sliced strawberries.
cover with more whipped cream before adding next layer of cake.
Once you reach the top layer, fill any gaps with whipped cream, cover with plastic wrap, & chill in the fridge for a few hours.
After chilling the cake use a hot knife to cut off the sides of the cake.
pipe whipped cream along the borders of the cake.
Top with strawberries and this is the final result. I hope you’ll make it, it’s easy, fun, & delicious ♪
