If the surface becomes too dark, cover with aluminium foil. Remove the cake from the oven, remove from the edge and allow to cool

    Wash the strawberries and, except for 3 strawberries, clean and finely dice them. Mix curd and 40 g sugar. Whip the cream until stiff, while pouring in the cream firming agent. First add the strawberry cubes, then the cream
