Spread on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: not suitable/ gas: level 3) for approx. 20 minutes. Wash, clean and cut 350 g strawberries into pieces. Soak 1 sheet of gelatine in cold water. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool down. Wash and clean 400 g strawberries.

    Add 50 g sugar and puree. Squeeze the gelatine. Heat 100 g of the puree in a small pot, dissolve the gelatine in it. Pour the puree approx. 3 mm thin on a plate or platter and chill. Soak 9 sheets of gelatine in cold water. Mix 100 g sugar, quark, tequila, liqueur and remaining strawberry puree. Whip cream until stiff. Squeeze the gelatine and heat it up in a small pot. Stir in 6 tablespoons of the cream, then mix with the whole cream. Fold in the cream. Remove 2/3 of the cream and fold in the strawberry pieces. Cut the sponge cake base in half from the long side and put a cake frame around one half. Spread the cream with the strawberry pieces on the cake base, place the other half of the cake on top and spread the remaining cream on top. Chill for at least 2 hours.
