Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C (160 °C fan) and butter a 24 cm round tin.
- Whisk the eggs with the sugar for 6 to 8 minutes until the mixture is pale and has tripled in volume.
- Fold in the sifted flour with the baking powder, gently lifting the batter with a spatula.
- Pour into the tin and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until a skewer comes out dry; let it cool, then cut the cake into two or three discs.
- Make the syrup by dissolving the sugar in the water, then lightly brush each disc with it.
- Whip the cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla sugar, spread a layer on the first disc, scatter with wild strawberries, then stack, finishing with a layer of cream.
- Decorate with the remaining strawberries and almonds, then chill for at least two hours before serving.
Variations and tips
Everyday version. Replace the wild strawberries with chopped strawberries; the result is just as delicious.
