Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 75 g sugar
  • 75 g flour
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 3 tbsp water
  • 2 tsp powdered gelatin (concentrated)
  • 1 large can apricots
  • 200 g apricot jam
  • 3 tbsp brandy
  • 500 g whipping cream
  • 3 packets stabilizer
  • 100 g hazelnut brittle
  • 100 g hazelnut glaze or other cake glaze

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Beat the eggs with sugar and water on high speed for about 7 minutes until stiff peaks form. Sift the flour and salt over the egg mixture and fold in gently. Pour the batter into a springform pan lined with parchment paper and bake at 180°C for about 25–30 minutes. Remove from oven, transfer to a cooling rack, lift off the parchment, and let the base cool completely. Cut once horizontally.

  2. 2.

    Rinse the gelatin with 2–3 tbsp cold water and let it bloom. Whip the cream until stiff. Drain the apricots; cut four halves for decoration into strips, dice the rest into small cubes. Mix the apricot cubes with jam, stir in brandy. Dissolve the gelatin over low heat in a saucepan and fold into the apricot mixture.

  3. 3.

    Spread the mixture onto the lower base, pipe some cream for garnish, spread remaining cream over the apricots, then place the second base on top. Melt the hazelnut glaze in a double boiler, brush the cake with it, and sprinkle with brittle. Spritz dots of cream over the cake and garnish with apricot strips before serving.
