Method

  1. Green Tea Sponge

    Mix all ingredients on low speed for about 4 minutes (using a flat beater). Deposit the batter into a frame measuring 60/40 cm. Bake at 180 °C for about 30 minutes. After cooling, cut the sponge into two equal layers.

  2. Yogurt Cream (lower layer)

    Whip the chilled cream with the mascarpone. Dissolve the Zeesan thoroughly in the water. Add the whipped cream in portions and mix gently until combined. Spread the cream on a previously chilled Green Tea sponge layer and chill. Sprinkle 1 kg of frozen raspberries over the chilled cream.

  3. Raspberry Jelly

    Dissolve the jelly in hot water. Pour the setting jelly over the sprinkled raspberries and chill.

  4. Yogurt Cream (upper layer)

    Whip the chilled cream with the mascarpone. Dissolve the Zeesan thoroughly in the water. Add the whipped cream in portions and mix gently until combined. Spread the yogurt cream over the set raspberry jelly and cover with the second green tea sponge layer.

  5. Yuzu Glaze

    Soak the gelatine in the water, then liquefy the soaked gelatine. Combine all ingredients using a blender. Pour the finished glaze over the surface of the cake and chill.
