  1. The cake base recipe is from Cindyan. Thanks for that 🙂

Cake base:

  1. Mix eggs, sugar, sifted flour, baking powder, oil and water and pour into a greased cake tin lined with breadcrumbs (diameter 26 cm). Bake at 180 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
  2. When the cake base has cooled down, cut straight at the top if necessary and then cut through once so that you have 2 bases. Place a cake ring around one of the bases.

Lemon cream:

  1. Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until frothy, add the lemon zest and lemon juice and continue beating.
  2. Soak the gelatine in a little water, dissolve the gelatine by heating. Stir 2 tablespoons of the egg yolk mixture into the gelatin, then stir all of the gelatin into the remaining egg yolk mixture.
  3. Beat the egg whites until stiff and whip the cream until stiff too. When the egg yolk begins to gel, fold in both.
  4. Spread the cream on the bottom cake base, place the second cake base on top and put the whole thing in the refrigerator.

Rhubarb jelly:

  1. Peel the rhubarb and cut into pieces. Bring the water with the sugar to the boil, add the rhubarb and simmer for a few minutes until the rhubarb disintegrates. Let cool down.
  2. Soak the gelatine in a little water, then dissolve while heating. Add 1 tablespoon of the rhubarb mixture to the gelatin, stir well. Then add all of the gelatin mass to the rest of the rhubarb mixture.
  3. When it starts to gel, spread it on top of the cake and put it back in the fridge.

Completion:

  1. Whip the cream until stiff. Carefully remove the cake from the cake ring. Spread the cream all around and decorate the top with cream tuffs if necessary.
