A sweet sponge cake base filled with crème patissier and red Fruitlife strawberries is a sophisticated treat that will delight any dessert lover. The soft, airy texture of the biscuit base is the perfect base for the rich, creamy filling of crème patissier, a classic pastry cream prepared with milk, eggs, sugar and vanilla.
To make the sponge cake base, beat eggs and sugar until light and frothy. Then carefully spat in flour and a little baking powder for an airy texture. Bake the base in a preheated oven until golden brown and springy.
While the sponge cake cools, prepare the crème patissier. Heat milk with vanilla, mix with egg-sugar mixture and slowly cook to a thick, smooth custard. Let the cream cool before spreading it over the cooled sponge cake base.
For the topping, use the high-quality Fruitlife strawberry puree, which provides an intense, natural strawberry flavour. Spread the puree evenly over the crème patissier and garnish with fresh strawberries for an extra touch of colour and freshness.
The result is a delicate, delicious dessert with a perfect balance of sweet sponge cake, creamy filling and the fresh taste of red strawberries. Perfect for any special occasion or as a finale to a summer dinner.
