Last week I told you that I have two more recipes for you and then I’m going on summer break. Then I quickly changed my mind: This will be the last recipe – then it will continue at the beginning of September. I just need a break. Don’t think up any recipes, bake anything, cook anything, take photos of anything. I will still continue to share summer inspiration with you on Instagram. There are simply too many recipes here that I would like to share with you. But before we go on break, I’m going to serve you another wonderful cake today: a quick berry bee sting. Light, fluffy sponge cake filled with berries and a light pudding-based filling. Incredibly delicious, I tell you! But first I’ll give you all the facts at a glance:
- easy light cake,
- with fluffy sponge cake and berries,
- with pudding curd cream cream,
- healthier and almost sugar-free,
- Lower in calories than traditional cakes
- made quick and easy,
- perfect for summer.
Quick summer cake: berries bee sting
I made the sponge cake for the summer cake according to my tried and tested procedure: Don’t separate the eggs and beat them individually, but rather put them all in a bowl and, together with the sugar, simply give it all 15 minutes on the highest setting. Then it will be wonderfully light and thick and creamy. Here I replace half of the sugar with erythritol. I don’t dare use more than that because I have the feeling that the sponge cake will shrink otherwise. Sugar helps stability in my eyes. But if anyone has had different experiences, please share it. As always, I use spelled flour instead of wheat flour. It works exactly the same way 1:1. So if you only have wheat flour at home, feel free to use that. For the filling, I first cooked a vegan vanilla pudding and then added low-fat quark and cream fine to it. Finally, just quickly fold in a few frozen berries and you can finish the cake. Thanks to the frozen berries, you can actually easily bake the cake all year round. But I admit, it’s just the best for summer. Really easy to make, fruity, fresh, light and simply incredibly tasty. Love this cake. Give it a try and let me know what you think of the tart. I’m looking forward to feedback.
