Preparation

Step 1

The sponge:
You will need a food mixer to make the sponge.
Weigh the sugar and the flour and put them in separate bowls. Add the baking powder to the flour.
Mount the egg whites with a pinch of salt. Add the sugar and keep whisking. Add the 3 yolks, lower the speed then add the flower, in sprinkles.
Turn off the mixer and pour the mix into a springform cake tin.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20 minutes. Leave to cool, then moisten the cake with the peach juice, using a spoon. Leave to soak up the juice for 15 minutes.

Step 2

Mix the mascarpone and the fromage frais together. Add the brown sugar and the caster sugar. Mix well. Spread onto the cake sponge. Chill in the fridge for 1 hour.

Step 3

Cut the peaches into slices. Drain them on kitchen roll for 10 minutes. Arrange them in a flower pattern on top of the cake. Return to the fridge until it's time for dessert!
