Method

  1. FlexiSoft base

    Mix all ingredients for 4 minutes on high speed and 2 minutes on low speed. Spread the batter as a sponge roll and bake.

  2. Decorative roll (pictures top right): Colour part of the FlexiSoft batter with food colourings or cocoa powder. When using liquid Dawn food colourings, also stir in a little wheat starch. Spread this decorative batter onto heart relief mats or stencils on baking paper, spread the FlexiSoft batter over it and bake like rolls. After baking, cut the roll into strips of any width and lay them in the cake ring before filling.

  3. Strawberry cream

    Mix the fond with the water, then gradually fold in the cream.

  4. Assembly: Thinly brush the shortcrust base with Belnap.

  5. Place a FlexiSoft base on top.

  6. Line the cake ring with the decorative roll.

  7. Insert the base and fill with half of the cream.

  8. Place the second base on top and fill with the rest of the cream.

  9. Chill and briefly freeze.

  10. Spread on the Decorgel.

  11. Melt the fat glaze drops, spread on and let set briefly.

  12. Cut out hearts and place them on top together with the chocolate curls and strawberries.
