Kitchen know-how

Tips for Bee sting sheet cake

Make yeast dough appear visible

Not only work after the clock: the dough should roughly double its volume. A warm, train-free space ensures an even loose crumb.

Watch the almond lining baking

Sugar and almonds colour faster than the yeast bottom. Will darken the surface early, cover the cake loosely with baking paper and bake ready.

Cool cake well before filling

Soil, pudding and cream must be completely cold. Otherwise, the cream melts, pulls into the crumb and runs out while cutting.

Variations

How to adapt this recipe

Stir cold vanilla pudding spoonfully in 250 grams of room-warm butter. Both ingredients need the same temperature so that the cream does not run.

Serve the yeast bottom without cream and apply the almond surface slightly thicker. The cooled cake is then well suited for freezing.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ about Bee sting sheet cake

The high sugar content caramelizes quickly or the sheet was too high. Bake on medium rail and cover a browned area in time.

Before filling, cut the top cake plate into portions with a saw knife. Then place pieces on the cream so that no pressure is generated when serving.

Stir the pudding completely cold, beat the cream stiffly and gently combine it. Then leave the stuffed cake in the fridge for several hours.

Because of the pudding cream filling, it belongs in the refrigerator and should be eaten within two days. Cover airtight so that the cut edges do not dry out.
