Preparation procedure

  • Batter preparation: Whip the softened margarine (or butter) with the sugar and vanilla sugar until fluffy. While continuing to beat, gradually add the eggs, then pour in the milk. In another bowl, mix the ground poppy seeds with the sifted flour and baking powder. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and mix thoroughly. Pour the batter into a baking pan lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 20–25 minutes.
  • Cream preparation: Mix the pudding powder, Maizena and sugar with a little cold milk. Bring the remaining milk to a boil, then whisk in the prepared pudding mixture. Cook until a thick pudding forms. Cover with plastic wrap and let cool. Meanwhile, whip the margarine (or butter) until fluffy and gradually beat it into the cooled pudding.
  • Finishing the cake: Spread the vanilla cream over the poppy-seed layer, smooth it out, and finally sprinkle with finely ground poppy seeds. Let the cake set in the refrigerator for several hours.
