Directions

  1. 1

    Separate eggs. Cream fat, 60 g sugar, vanillin sugar and salt with the whisk of the hand mixer. Stir in the egg yolks one after the other. Mix flour, almonds and baking powder and stir in briefly together with the milk

  2. 2

    Beat the egg whites with the whisks of the hand mixer until stiff. Fold in 60 g sugar by the spoonful. Then fold in/mix 60 g sugar with a dough scraper

  3. 3

    Grease a springform pan (approx. 20 cm Ø) and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Put the dough into the tin and smooth it down. Spread the meringue loosely on top and spread it so that an approx. 1 cm wide edge remains free. Bake in the preheated oven, 2nd shelf from below (electric oven: 175 °C/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: see manufacturer) for approx. 40 minutes. If necessary, cover with aluminium foil about 10 minutes before the end of the baking time. Carefully remove the finished cake from the edge of the mould with a knife and let it cool down in the mould on a cake rack (approx. 1 1/2 hours)

  4. 4

    Soak gelatine in cold water. Sort raspberries. Puree 200 g raspberries and 30 g sugar and pass through a sieve. Squeeze out 2 sheets of gelatine, melt in a pot at low heat and mix well with the raspberry puree. Chill for about 20 minutes until the mixture begins to gel

  5. 5

    Whip the cream until stiff. Mix mascarpone, 75 g sugar, lemon juice and grated lemon peel. Squeeze out 3 sheets of gelatine and melt in a pot at low heat. Stir 1-2 tbsp. mascarpone cream into the gelatine, then stir the mixture into the remaining mascarpone cream. Fold the cream first, then the remaining raspberries into the cream

  6. 6

    Remove the meringue cake from the mould and cut through the base 1 x horizontally (namely the sponge base, so that the upper base does not only consist of the meringue layer). Place the bottom cake layer on a cake plate and enclose it with a cake ring. Spread half of the cream on the cake base, spread half of the raspberry puree on top and fold into the cream in streaks. Add the rest of the cream and raspberry puree and repeat the process. Place the meringue base on top and chill the cake for about 1 hour.

  7. 7

    Roast the almonds in a pan without fat, take them out immediately and let them cool down. Remove the cake from the cake ring, sprinkle with almonds and dust with icing sugar
