Instructions

1. Prepare Vanilla Custard

   In a saucepan combine 6 egg yolks, 100 g granulated sugar and 30 g cornstarch. Whisk until smooth, then stir in 1 tsp vanilla bean paste (or extract). Gradually whisk in warm milk while stirring constantly.

   Time: PT15M

2. Cook Custard

   Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly with a silicone spatula. When the mixture begins to bubble and thicken (about 8‑10 minutes), remove from heat.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: Medium heat

3. Cool Custard

   Transfer the hot custard to a shallow bowl, cover the surface directly with plastic wrap to prevent a skin forming, let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

   Time: PT15M

4. Make Sponge Batter

   In a clean bowl, whisk 4 large eggs with 100 g granulated sugar and 1 tsp vanilla extract until the mixture becomes thick, pale and holds soft peaks (about 5‑6 minutes). Sift together 100 g all‑purpose flour and 30 g cornstarch, then gently fold into the egg mixture. Finally, fold in 60 ml milk until just combined.

   Time: PT15M

5. Bake Sponge Layers

   Pre‑heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease three 8‑inch round cake pans, line with parchment, and divide the batter evenly. Bake each sheet for 12‑13 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. If the oven is small, bake one sheet at a time.

   Time: PT36M

   Temperature: 350°F

6. Cool Sponge Sheets

   Allow the baked sheets to cool in the pans for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a cooling rack. Let them cool completely before handling.

   Time: PT15M

7. Prepare Diplomat Cream

   In a chilled bowl, whisk 300 ml heavy cream with 30 g powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Gently fold the chilled custard (300 g) into the whipped cream until fully incorporated.

   Time: PT10M

8. Assemble the Cake

   Place one sponge sheet on a serving plate. Spread a thin layer of raspberry jam, then a generous layer of vanilla custard, and top with a layer of diplomat cream. Repeat with the second sheet, adjusting the amount of jam so the cake stays level. Place the third sheet on top, spread the remaining custard and diplomat cream over the top and sides to create a smooth crumb coat. Chill the cake for 20 minutes to set the coating.

   Time: PT20M

9. Make Marzipan Dough

   In a bowl combine 200 g almond flour, 200 g powdered sugar, 2 tbsp honey and 1 tbsp water. Knead until a smooth, pliable dough forms (about 5‑7 minutes). Divide the dough into three portions: one for the white base, one for green leaves, and one for pink flowers.

   Time: PT20M

10. Color Marzipan

    Take the white portion and knead in 1 tsp white food coloring until uniformly pale. For the green portion, knead in ½ tsp green coloring; for the pink portion, knead in ½ tsp pink coloring. Keep the dough covered to prevent drying.

    Time: PT15M

11. Shape Decorations

    Roll the white marzipan into a thin sheet (≈2 mm) and cut a long rectangular strip for the cake’s “crown”. Roll the green marzipan into thin leaves and the pink marzipan into small petals. Assemble the crown by layering the strip, adding green leaves and pink flowers with a little water as glue.

    Time: PT30M

12. Cover and Decorate Cake

    Roll the remaining white marzipan into a smooth sheet large enough to cover the whole cake. Gently drape it over the chilled cake, smoothing with your hands and an offset spatula. Trim excess at the base. Press the prepared marzipan crown onto the top, add any extra flowers, and lightly dust with powdered sugar if desired.

    Time: PT15M

13. Final Chill

    Refrigerate the finished cake for at least 30 minutes before slicing to allow all layers to set.

    Time: PT30M
