Method

  1. Mango-passion fruit sponge

    Mix all ingredients on low speed for about 4 minutes (using a flat beater). Deposit the batter into two frames measuring 60 x 40 cm. Bake at 180°C for about 20 minutes. Cool.

  2. Green tea sponge

    Mix all ingredients on low speed for about 4 minutes (using a flat beater). Deposit the batter into one frame measuring 60 x 40 cm. Bake at 180°C for about 20 minutes. Cool.

  3. Peach-passion fruit cream

    Whip the chilled cream. Dissolve the Zeesan thoroughly in the water. Add the whipped cream in portions and fold in gently until combined.

  4. Assembly: on the first mango-passion fruit sponge spread 800 g (per piece) of peach-passion fruit cream and cover it with the green tea sponge. Spread 800 g (per piece) of peach-passion fruit cream again and cover with the second mango-passion fruit sponge. Chill the whole. Protect the remaining cream and use it for decoration.

  5. Gel

    Spread Paletta Cold evenly over the surface of the cake. Cut the cake into rectangles measuring 18 x 8 cm. Freeze.

  6. Chocolate glaze

    Combine the chocolate with the oil and heat to 40°C. Coat the cut pieces with the finished glaze (dipping the cake in the glaze and removing excess glaze from the underside). Sprinkle the edges with crushed pistachios.

  7. Decoration: decorate as desired, or with the cream prepared earlier. Zeelandia recommends the Bon Ton Listek decoration.
