    Whisk eggs, remaining sugar and vanilla sugar with the whisk of the hand mixer until thick and frothy (4-5 minutes). Mix curd, cream cheese, flour, orange and lime peel and orange juice until smooth and stir into the egg foam. Spread the mandarins, except for a few for decoration, on the rusk. Add the cream cheese mixture and smooth it down. Bake in the preheated oven, 2nd shelf from below (electric oven: 150 °C/ gas: level 1) for approx. 35 minutes. Then switch the oven up (electric oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 2) and bake in approx. 45 minutes. Carefully remove the cake from the edge with a sharp knife and let it cool down in the tin on a cake rack.
