A Patissier's Cake Decorated With Lots of Strawberries

  1. Line the cake pan with parchment paper.
  2. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C.
  3. Add the eggs and granulated sugar to a bowl and mix.
  4. Place the bowl over another bowl of hot water and mix with a hand mixer until the mixture is warm to the touch.
  5. Remove the bowl from the hot water bath and beat on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  6. When you lift the beater, the batter should form thick ribbons.
  7. Set the hand mixer to low speed and beat again for 1 more minute.
  8. Add the cake flour in several batches and mix it in.
  9. While turning the bowl with your left hand, use a rubber spatula with your right hand to fold in the flour by lifting the batter up from the bottom of the bowl.
  10. Place the butter over a hot water bath and melt it.
  11. Add the butter, pouring it over the rubber spatula and then folding it in.
  12. Pour the batter into the cake pan.
  13. Pour any batter leftover in the bowl around the sides of the pan, not the middle.
  14. Bake in a 180 degrees C oven for 30 minutes.
  15. When you push on the cake with your hand and it springs back, it's done baking.
