- Almond cake
Spread half of the batter on a tray lined with paper. Combine the cocoa, sugar and water and add to the remaining batter. Spread the dark batter on top.
Cream: mix KOMPLET Krem Ideal with the water and beat. Pipe the finished cream onto the almond cake in a lattice pattern using a piping bag.
Pears: peel and core the pears and cut into halves or quarters. Roll them in cinnamon and arrange on the cake with the cream. Bake.
Meringue: mix KOMPLET Bezy Meringue with the sugar and, whipping, add the water. Add the potato starch and coffee to the whipped foam. Continue whipping for 1 more minute until the structure is uniform. Spread the finished mass on top of the hot, baked almond cake with pears. Bake the cake together with the meringue layer.
The meringue layer can be decorated with crumble or shortcrust pastry before baking.
