Instructions:

For the pot pie, first prepare the sponge cake batter. Separate the eggs and beat the yolks with 50g powdered sugar. Beat the egg whites with 100g granulated sugar until creamy. Sift the flour.

Mix yolks with the snow mixture and fold in flour carefully. Pour into a cake form and bake at 175 °C. Allow to cool.

For the cream, whisk curd, yolks and flavorings until smooth, now stir in the melted butter, not too hot. Beat egg whites, sugar and a pinch of salt until creamy.

Soak the gelatine, squeeze out and dissolve in a little rum. Stir one tablespoon of the cream into the gelatine until smooth, then add the gelatine to the remaining curd. Gently fold the snow and cream into the curd mixture. This creates a very loose, airy mass.

Cut the cake base horizontally 2 times with a knife so that you get 3 evenly thick slices. Spread a thin layer of jam on the bottom and top cake layers. Strawberry jam or currant jam work very well for this. Spread half of the cream on the bottom layer, place the sponge cake layer on top and spread the remaining cream on top. Top with the last sponge cake slice, with the jam facing down and press smooth.

Refrigerate for 2-3 hours. Remove the cake from the mold, spread with cream and decorate the edge with toasted almond flakes.

Use a piping bag to pipe Obers rosettes onto the pot tart and decorate with fruit as desired.
