Preparation procedure

  • Preparing the cake base Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Beat the eggs with the sugar until pale and fluffy. Add the flour mixed with the baking powder, the oil, milk and the vanilla sugar. Mix everything thoroughly until a smooth batter forms.
  • Baking Pour the batter into a greased and floured cake pan. Bake for 35–40 minutes, until the surface turns golden and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake base cool completely.
  • Preparing the cream Beat the softened butter with the powdered sugar until pale and fluffy. Gradually add the quark or mascarpone and any chosen flavors. The resulting cream should be smooth and airy.
  • Cut the cooled cake base into two layers. Spread cream on the bottom layer, place the second on top, and cover the whole cake with the remaining cream, including the sides. Decorate as desired – with fruit, chocolate, chopped nuts or sugar decorations.
