Method
- Poppy seed sponge
Mix all ingredients on low speed for about 4 minutes using a flat beater. Spread the batter into three rings about 18 cm in diameter (about 350 g each). Bake at 180°C for about 30 minutes. Cool and cut each layer into four discs of equal thickness.
- Plum filling
Spread the plum jam evenly over three poppy seed discs (about 160 g each) and press the second discs on top.
- Custard cream
Whip all ingredients on high speed with a whisk until smooth and uniform. Spread part of the cream (about 160 g each) evenly over the poppy seed discs and press the third discs on top. Spread another part of the cream (about 160 g each) and press the last poppy seed discs on top. Spread the remaining cream (about 160 g each) evenly over the surface of the three cakes. Chill.
- Glaze
Melt the glaze (Satina) with the oil in a water bath or microwave. Cool, then pour over the chilled cakes.
