preparation
Preheat the oven to 170°C without fan and 10%
humidity. Place the eggs, sugar and salt in the mixing
bowl of a planetary mixer and blend at low speed for
one minute. Increase the speed to full and beat for 10
minutes until very fluffy and light in colour. Add the
turmeric powder and beat for another minute to mix.
Gently fold in flour. Place sponge mix in paper lined
18 cm springform, bake for 35 minutes. Cool on rack,
remove from pan cool completely and place in fridge,
wrapped in cling film over night before proceeding.
Pour the sponge mix into a paper-lined 18 cm springform
pan and bake for 35 minutes. Cool the cake on a
rack; after it has cooled completely, take it out of the
pan, wrap it in cling film and refrigerate it over night
before continuing.
Assembly
Beat the Oldenburger Performance Whipping
Cream and sugar until soft peaks form, then add
the vanilla and continue beating until stiff peaks
form. Chill.
Slice the cake horizontally into three layers of equal
thickness. Put the bottom layer in a cake ring and
generously brush it with simple syrup, then spread
⅓ of the cream onto it. Place next layer on top,
brush generously with syrup and add ⅓ of the
cream. Repeat with last layer and more cream,
reserving at least half of the remaining cream to
garnish. Gently press cake to even out. Chill for 3
hours and frost with cream.
The Final Touch
Garnish cake with cream, dragonfruit cubes and
slices and gold coloured sugar.
