- 300 ml Heavy cream
- 1 1/2 tbsp Sugar
- 1 as much as you want Whatever fruits you prefer
- 1 Chiffon cake (https://cookpad.com/en/recipes/144549-fluffy-plain-chiffon-cake)
- 4 Egg whites (large)
- 50 grams Sugar
- 4 Egg yolk (large)
- 20 grams Sugar
- 40 ml Vegetable oil or olive oil
- 70 ml Milk or water
- 2 or 3 drops Vanilla extract (optional)
- 75 grams White flour
- Please refer to this recipe here (https://cookpad.com/en/recipes/144549-fluffy-plain-chiffon-cake) for detailed instructions for Steps 4 through 7.
- Spread out patterned paper in a baking tray.
- Preheat the oven to 180C for 14 minutes.
- Add the sugar in 3 or 4 batches to the egg whites.
- Beat until stiff peaks form.
- Tip: Use low speed for the last 1 minute to for the texture.
- Add the sugar all together to the egg yolk and beat until it becomes whitish.
- Then add the ingredients and beat together.
- Add the sifted flour little by little to the egg yolk bowl and mix with a whisk or spatula.
- Add the mixture from Step 6 to the meringue in 2 or 3 batches and mix, being sure not to break the meringue texture.
- Pour the batter into the baking tray and make smooth with a scraper or spatula.
- Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven.
- When it has completed baking, leave it on the pattern paper and wrap tightly with a large piece of saran wrap.
- Put Step 10 into a large plastic bag and cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, cut and prepare the fruit.
- Cut the cooled cake in half.
- Mix 1 tablespoon of sugar into the heavy cream until the fluffy peaks flatten.
- If the fruits that you are adding to the center are large, use 300 ml of cream; if the thickness is thin, use 200 ml.
- I cut the strawberries in half vertically, so I used 300 ml.
- Set aside some of the cream for decorating.
- Whip this cream until stiff peaks form and chill in the refrigerator.
- Cut a clear folder in half and match and adjust the lengths to use for transferring the cake.
- It makes the transfer easy and is useful!
- You can do this if you want.
- Thinly spread cream onto the cut-in-half sponge cake.
- Place the fruit and spread on more cream.
- Cover with the other half of the cake and spread the whole thing with the remaining cream.
- Use a knife for the top.
- Work quickly so as not to let it dry out!
- How to wrap: The ends break easily, so poke toothpicks into the top and wrap loosely so that it doesn't touch the cake.
- Wrap and chill in the refrigerator for about 4 hours to a full day.
- If you cut it too soon, the cream won't settle onto the cake and when you cut, it will slide off.
- Once it settles, take off the wrap and cut off the 4 edges.
- Cut into any shape of your choice and decorate.
- It's finished.
- The decoration in the picture is basically the same, but I made it separately.
- This cake was given to me in the comments by MiyaKitchen.
- It was very delicious!
- There's also a chocolate version!
- Summery yellow peach!
- Of course, I made Mont Blanc for the Fall!
- I used "ShiawaseMachiko's" Chestnut Cream recipe..
- I also tried doubling the recipe and slicing the halves thinly to make a big shortcake.
