Prep Time30 minsCook Time30 minsTotal Time1 hr
Ingredients
 4 Egg
 200 Sugar (or aspartame)
 70 Potato starch
 1 Lemon (its zest)
 500 Cream with 30% fat content
 600 Strawberry
Directions
1

Prepare the sponge cake: beat the eggs with 75 g of sugar. Add the starch, almonds, and lemon zest. Whip the egg whites with 75 g of sugar. Gently fold the egg whites into the previous mixture. Pour everything into a 21 cm round cake pan and bake for 30-35 minutes at 150°C.

2

Let the cake cool. Cut it in half lengthwise. Prepare the whipped cream by mixing the remaining sugar, the stabilizer packets, and the fresh cream.

3

Line the inside of the cake with some whipped cream and slices of strawberry. Replace the top and cover with the remaining whipped cream. Decorate with a few reserved strawberries.

4

To finish, you can replace the whipped cream inside the cake with vanilla pudding. This prevents the cake from being too cloying.

    Very good I also tried it with lemon buttercream... the icing looks nicer and allows for a different decoration.
