Today, I invite you to recreate a modern and vibrant version of this classic dessert: the Spring Diplomat Roll. This recipe combines nostalgic memories with the bright colors and fresh flavors of the season. Preparation time: 30 minutes Baking time: 25 minutes Total time: 6-7 hours (including cooling time) Number of servings: 10-12 Necessary ingredients: *For the base:* - 6 eggs - 6 tablespoons raw sugar - 6 tablespoons flour - 2 tablespoons sunflower oil - 1 tablespoon Dr. Oetker baking powder - 1 packet Dr. Oetker Bourbon vanilla - A pinch of salt - A drop of Dr. Oetker red gel food coloring (for decoration) *For the cream:* - 500 g whipped cream (35% fat) - 3 egg yolks - 150 g Dr. Oetker vanilla-flavored powdered sugar - 1 packet Dr. Oetker gelatin granules - 50 ml water or syrup from canned fruit *For the fruit filling:* - 5-6 large strawberries - 2-3 halves of canned peaches - 1 mandarin *For decoration:* - Dr. Oetker dark chocolate glaze - Dr. Oetker colorful confetti Preparing the base: 1. Separate the eggs: Start by separating the egg whites from the yolks. It is essential that the bowls are completely dry to achieve a perfect meringue. 2. Beat the egg whites: In a bowl, add a pinch of salt to the egg whites and mix for about 1 minute, until frothy. Then, gradually add the raw sugar, continuing to mix until you obtain a firm and shiny meringue. 3. Incorporate the yolks: Add the yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, add the oil and vanilla essence, mixing until well combined. 4. Add the flour: In another bowl, mix the flour with the baking powder, then incorporate this mixture into the wet ingredients. Use a spatula and gently fold to avoid losing air from the egg whites. 5. Red decorator: Set aside 3 tablespoons of the base mixture. Add a little red gel food coloring and mix well. Place this mixture in a plastic bag, cut off a corner, and use it to make decorations on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 165 degrees Celsius for 3-4 minutes until slightly firm. 6. Bake the base: Pour the remaining base mixture over the baked decorations and bake for 20 minutes. Once baked, remove the base onto a damp towel to prevent drying, remove the parchment paper, and roll it in the damp towel. Allow to cool. Preparing the cream: 1. Egg yolk cream: In a bowl, mix the yolks with half of the powdered sugar until it becomes a light-colored cream. 2. Hydrate the gelatin: In another container, soak the gelatin in water or fruit syrup. Once hydrated, add it to the yolk mixture and place the bowl over a double boiler. Stir constantly for 10-15 minutes until the sugar completely dissolves. Allow to cool, but do not let it set. 3. Whip the cream: In another bowl, whip the cream with the remaining sugar until you achieve a firm consistency. Add the yolk cream and gently mix to combine the ingredients. Chill for 15-20 minutes. Assembling the roll: 1. Prepare the fruits: Cut the strawberries, peaches, and mandarin into small cubes. Place them in a strainer to drain excess liquid. 2. Spread the base: Place the base on a piece of plastic wrap, with the red pattern facing down. 3. Add the cream: Spread the cream evenly over the base using a spatula. Then, sprinkle the fruit cubes on top. 4. Roll it up: Using the plastic wrap, roll the base, being careful to tighten it gently to avoid breaking. Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 5-6 hours, ideally overnight. Decorating the roll: 1. Glaze: For a simple and effective decoration, heat the Dr. Oetker glaze in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. Cut a corner of the packet and decorate the roll with the melted glaze. 2. Confetti: Sprinkle colorful confetti on top for a festive and colorful look. Serving suggestions: This Spring Diplomat Roll is perfect for holidays or special occasions but can also be enjoyed as an everyday dessert. Served alongside a cup of tea or coffee, it will bring a smile to anyone's face. Useful tips: - If you have concerns about rolling the base, let it cool in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes, making it easier to handle. - Experiment with various seasonal fruits for the filling, such as raspberries or blueberries, to add a variety of flavors.
