Instructions
Layers
Whisk the egg whites and gradually add sugar to form a light meringue.
Gently fold the powdered sugar into the meringue.
Place the meringue in a piping bag and pipe three round layers approximately 18 cm in diameter on baking sheets lined with parchment paper. You will need two baking sheets.
Bake the layers at 110°C (convection) for one hour and then let them cool with the oven door open.
Blueberry Cream
Soak the gelatin in water for 5 minutes.
Bring blueberries, sugar, lemon, and water to a boil in a saucepan.
Blend into a completely smooth purée.
Squeeze the water from the gelatin and stir it into the hot mixture.
Let the blueberry purée cool completely.
Whip the cream to soft peaks and gently fold it into the cooled blueberry purée.
Place the cream in a piping bag with a round nozzle and pipe the cream between the meringue layers.
Top with chopped chocolate, mint, and fresh blueberries.

Cardamom Buns
Cardamom bun are my absolute favorite yeast dough pastry. Here you get the recipe for sticky cardamom twists with a good layer of filling. I roll them in a slightly different way, which makes them extra beautiful and properly baked through. You can see how in the video below. Let them rise for 3 hours or longer. This gives you a really smooth and delicious dough, and some large twists.
Cream Puffs with Strawberries
These elegant cream puffs combine a chewy base of baked marzipan with a light, sweet foam and a fresh strawberry in the center. Each cream puff is coated with crisp dark chocolate and garnished with freeze-dried strawberries for a beautiful and inviting appearance. A delicious and luxurious version of the classic cream puff.
Raspberry Swiss Roll
A fresh and summery Swiss roll with a hint of lemon, soft berries, and whipped cream. Perfect as a dessert or for afternoon coffee. The airy base is rolled with a tangy and sweet filling and garnished with fresh raspberries, easy to make and tastes like summer.
Apple Cake
A true autumn cake: warm and soft with a slightly crisp top, where the fresh tartness of the apples meets sweetness and a hint of cinnamon. Perfect on an autumn day with a spoonful of cold crème fraîche or whipped cream.
