A gem with a subtle lemon note

Line a 28 cm springform pan with baking paper and preheat the oven to 180°C. Separate the eggs and beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the sugar and beat until a nice, firm, shiny mixture forms. Stir in the egg yolks one at a time and carefully whisk in the flour mixed with the baking powder. Pour the batter into the springform pan and bake at 180°C for approx. 30-35 minutes. Remove from the pan and allow to cool. Soak the gelatine according to the package instructions, squeeze out the excess liquid, and set aside. In a large bowl, mix the quark, lemon juice, and zest until smooth. Whisk the cream until stiff peaks form and set aside. Heat the milk in a small saucepan with the sugar and stir until dissolved. Dissolve the soaked and squeezed gelatine in the hot milk, then quickly whisk in the egg yolks. Remove the pan from the heat and mix 2-3 tablespoons of the quark mixture with the hot egg and milk mixture, let it cool slightly, and then whisk it into the quark. Now fold in the stiffly whipped cream, also using a whisk. Halve the sponge cake, place it on a cake plate, use a cake ring to surround it, and scatter the drained mandarin oranges on the base. Set aside 16 cake layers for decoration. Pour in the cream and place the second layer on top. Leave to set in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours. Loosen the cake ring with a wide knife and remove it. Just before serving, dust it thickly with powdered sugar and decorate with cream puffs and mandarin oranges. Tip: If you brush the cake ring with oil and sprinkle it with sugar before placing it on the cake, it will be easier to remove and you will have a nice, smooth edge.
