Ingredients

  • 4 eggs (medium size)
  • 2 tbsp lukewarm water
  • 125 g sugar
  • 1 packet vanilla sugar
  • 125 g flour
  • 5 sheets white gelatin
  • 400 g raspberries
  • 150 g crème fraîche
  • 150 g full‑fat yogurt
  • 75 g powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp Cassis liqueur
  • 200 g whipping cream (1 cup)
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (gas setting 5, fan: 180°C). Beat eggs and water until frothy. Gradually pour in sugar and vanilla sugar while continuously whisking. Sift flour over the mixture and fold it in.

  2. 2.

    Spread the sponge batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake on the middle rack for 12–15 minutes. Remove, immediately roll onto a sugared kitchen towel. Brush parchment with cold water, peel it off slowly, cover with a damp towel, and let cool.

  3. 3.

    Soak gelatin sheets in cold water for 5 minutes. Rinse raspberries and puree 150 g of them. Mix raspberry purée, crème fraîche, yogurt, and powdered sugar. Warm Cassis liqueur. Squeeze out excess liquid from gelatin and dissolve it in the warm liqueur; stir in 2 tbsp raspberry purée, then fold everything into the remaining mixture. Whip egg whites and cream separately until stiff peaks form, fold them in. Chill until the cream starts to set.

  4. 4.

    Spread the cream onto the sponge, distribute remaining raspberries on top. Roll the sponge with the help of the kitchen towel. Place seam side down on a plate, chill for about 3 hours. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
