Steps

30 minutes
  1. 1

    First, beat the egg whites with the vanilla sugar and half of the granulated sugar until stiff peaks form.

  2. 2

    In another bowl, beat the egg yolks with the remaining sugar very well. You can use a hand mixer or whisk by hand, but make sure they are well beaten.

  3. 3

    Gradually fold the beaten egg whites into the yolks in several additions, using gentle folding motions to keep the mixture light and airy.

  4. 4

    Sift the flour together with the baking powder. Add it to the mixture in two parts, folding gently each time to fully incorporate it into the batter.

  5. 5

    Using a piping bag with a small round tip, pipe the batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread the batter evenly with a spatula to form a thin, even layer.

  6. 6

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C), top and bottom heat. Bake for about 10 minutes, as the thin layer cooks quickly.

  7. 7

    Once baked, let it cool slightly (do not let it cool completely) and remove the parchment paper. Trim the edges with a knife to make a perfect rectangle. Place the cake layer on a clean kitchen towel, roll it up with the towel to shape it, and let it cool completely.

  8. 8

    Unroll the cake and spread the pastry cream or whipped cream evenly over the surface, leaving the top edge uncovered for sealing. Roll it up again tightly.

  9. 9

    Spread a layer of pastry cream on top, sprinkle with a little sugar, and caramelize it with a kitchen torch or hot iron.

  10. 10

    As always, I recommend watching the video for a better understanding.
