Method
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
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.
- Gel
Spread Paletta Cold evenly over the surface of the cake. Cut the cake into rectangles measuring 18 x 8 cm. Freeze.
- 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.
Decoration: decorate as desired, or with the cream prepared earlier. Zeelandia recommends the Bon Ton Listek decoration.
