Step 1
1. This simple dessert is based on sponge cake layers. First, separate the egg whites from the yolks and beat them separately: whip the whites into a foam, and beat the yolks with sugar. Sift the flour and gradually add it to the mixture. Now stir with a spoon or whisk by hand. Pour the batter into a baking pan and place in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 25 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the strawberry soaking syrup. To do this, blend the berries in a blender.
