MARSHMALLOW INDIVIDUAL CAKE
for 8 individual cakes
GELATIN MASS
1 Pour the powdered gelatin into a clean container and add cold water. Gently stir with a whisk.
2 Place the mixture in the fridge for 10-15 minutes for the gelatin to swell and bloom.
3 Then take the mass out of the fridge and melt it. If there is any foam, remove it with a sieve.
4 Put the mass back into the fridge to set completely. Then cut it into cubes with scissors so it can
be weighed and worked with more conveniently. The ratio of gelatin to water should always be
1:6 (one part of gelatin and six parts of water).
5 You can make the gelatin mass in advance and store it in the fridge for up to 2 days.
TIP
If you are using gelatin leaves, take the same weight of them as you would with powdered gelatin and soak them in
cold water. The gelatin leaves will absorb the right amount of water they need. Then squeeze them and use them as
required.
DACQUOISE SPONGE
1 Pour the egg whites into the mixer bowl and whip them with the whisk attachment into a white
foam on medium speed.
2 Gradually add sugar and whip the meringue until stiff but pliable.
3 Sift the almond powder and flour through a sieve onto the meringue and mix with a spatula until
almost homogeneous.
4 Incorporate the vegetable oil, peach puree and orange zest into the batter.
5 Place a baking frame measuring 20x20x4 cm onto a tray lined with a perforated silicone mat.
Pour the batter into it and spread it evenly with an offset spatula.
6 Bake the sponge at 160 °C / 320 °F for 15 minutes. The well-baked sponge should spring back 3
when pressed.
