How to make it

  1. 1

    Bake the cake

    Whisk the eggs and sugar for half an hour. Stir in the sifted flour and baking powder. Bake in a well-greased, breadcrumb-dusted tin, preferably round, for about ¾ hour.

  2. 2

    Make the filling

    Whip half of the cream until stiff and stir in the blanched, finely chopped or ground almonds, the sugar and the vanilla powder.

  3. 3

    Fill the cake

    Turn the cake out of the tin. When it is cold, cut it into 3 layers and spread the filling between the layers.

  4. 4

    Glaze and decorate

    Whip the rest of the cream until stiff. Dust the cake with sugar glaze (see Glaze). Put the stiff cream in a piping cone made of white, slightly stiff paper, with a sharp point at the bottom. Snip off the tip and pipe the cream into peaks, leaves or a pattern of your own.
