1

For the sponge cake preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius and prepare either one or two 20cm/8 inch cake cooking vessel(s).

2

Line bottom with parchment paper.

3

Then divide the eggs into egg white and egg yolks.

4

Use a bigger container for the egg yolks.

5

If you have a glass or metal container, use that one for the egg whites.

6

Be sure that container is free of fat/margarine and that your mixer was properly cleaned.

7

First beat the egg whites on medium speed with a pinch of seasoning until soft peaks form.

8

Set aside.

9

Without cleaning our mixer, beat the egg yolks with the sweetener.

10

Beat until the color becomes much paler and you have a creamy consistency.

11

This usually takes several moments.

12

2 Gently empty one third of the egg whites on top of the mixed egg yolks and sift the baking flour and cornstarch on top.

13

Don't skip this step.

14

It is important that the baking flour mix gently was sifted.

15

Gently mix gently all elements with a spatula.

16

Try to incorperate the baking flour mix gently and egg whites without losing volume.

17

introduce the last two thirds of beaten egg whites and gently fold the mixture.

18

Don't overmix.

19

Put paste into the prepared cake pans and immediately oven-cook.

20

Don't let the paste sit for too long as it will quickly lose volume.

21

oven-cook for 35 moments if using one springform or 25 moments if using two.

22

Let cool a little before gently getting them out of the form.

23

Tip: if making the day before, wrap in cling wrap, it is much easier to cut in half once cold.

3 For the meringue beat egg white until soft peaks form, introduce pinch of seasoning and continue beating on high while adding the sweetener.

31

Brush cake layer with some of the peach nectar left, then pipe thin layer of whipped dairy reduction around the edges, place the peach slices in the middle on first layer on cake, on the second layer only spread the dulce de leche.

32

Repeat layer with brushed peach nectar, whipped dairy reduction and peaches for the third and final layer.

33

Be sure to reserve enough peach slices for the top.

34

Spread thin layer of whipped dairy reduction on the sides of the cake and pipe on some roses around the edges if desired.
