Tomorrow my fiancee turns a year older. For that special day, I baked him a birthday cake as it has been tradition last 2 years :) This time I tried to make a bit different cake. I never have used marzipan lock before and as they say, better late than never :) So, I thought that why not to give it a try.
Sponge was made yesterday after my work day. Recipe for that I took again from Manuela's blog. Only difference from her sponge was, that I used bigger baking form and instead 1/4 teaspoon almond essence, my sponge has 1 whole teaspoon of almond essence :) Accidents happens. I just forgot myself to pour it on spoon :D
Since sponge was made yesterday, then all other part was left for today :) Now it is done and waiting in fridge tomorrow, so that I can give it to my dear Fiancee.
For first layer in his cake I used fresh homemade strawberry pure, what I made summer and had it in freezer.
Top of that I added vanilla cream and new layer of sponge.
New layer I filled as well first with strawberry jam and vanilla cream.
Top of that I made a cream, what was not that sweet. For that I used 3 dl whip-cream and 125 gr. quark. First I whipped cream hard and added quark. I mixed it slowly with spoon a little.
After that I added last layer of sponge and covered all that with white marzipan lock.
