Wash stingers and currants. Clean the gooseberries, pluck the currants from the panicles with a fork. Cream fat, 125 g sugar, vanillin sugar and salt with the whisk of the hand mixer.
Add the eggs one by one and stir in. Mix flour, starch and baking powder and stir in portions. Grease a ceramic mould (25 x 25 cm; approx. 1 1/2 litre capacity) and sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
Pour in the dough and smooth it down. Spread the fruit on top and bake in the preheated oven (electric: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for 60-70 minutes. Beat the egg white until stiff. At the same time, allow the remaining sugar to trickle in.
Pour into a piping bag with a star-shaped spout and 10 minutes before the end of the baking time, spray over the cake in a grid pattern and bake with it. Let it cool down on a cake rack. Makes approx. 12 pieces.
