Yield Makes 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 large egg whites
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into tablespoons
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups (12 ounces) strawberry jam, pureed in a food processor

Steps:

  • In the heatproof bowl of an electric mixer set over a saucepan of simmering water, combine egg whites and sugar. Cook, whisking constantly, until sugar has dissolved and mixture is warm to the touch (about 160 degrees).
  • Attach the bowl to the mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat the egg-white mixture on high speed until it holds stiff (but not dry) peaks. Continue beating until the mixture is fluffy and cooled, about 6 minutes.
  • Switch to the paddle attachment. With mixer on medium-low speed, add butter several tablespoons at a time, beating well after each addition. (If frosting appears to separate after all the butter has been added, beat on medium-high speed until smooth again, 3 to 5 minutes more.) Beat in vanilla. Beat on lowest speed to eliminate any air bubbles, about 2 minutes. Stir in strawberry jam with a rubber spatula until frosting is smooth.

Categories     Cake     Milk/Cream     Egg     Dessert     Bake     Strawberry     Orange     Almond     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 cups cake flour (not self-rising)
1 1/2 teaspoons double-acting baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 3/4 cups sugar
6 large eggs, separated
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup sliced blanched almonds, ground fine in an electric coffee or spice grinder
For the orange filling
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon freshly grated orange zest
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
3/4 cup fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 large egg yolks
1 1/2 pints strawberries, reserving 11 whole berries for garnish and the remaining ones chopped fine
1 cup well-chilled heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Line the bottoms of 3 buttered 9- by 2-inch cake pans with rounds of wax paper, butter the paper, and dust the pans with flour, knocking out the excess. Into a bowl sift together the flour, the baking powder, and the salt. In the bowl of an electric mixer cream together the butter and 3/4 cup of the sugar until mixture is light and fluffy, add the egg yolks, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, and beat in the vanilla. Add the flour mixture and the milk in batches, beginning and ending with the flour mixture and beating well after each addition, and divide the batter among the prepared pans, spreading and smoothing it.
  • In the cleaned bowl with cleaned beaters beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they hold soft peaks, add the remaining 1 cup sugar, a little at a time, and beat the meringue until it just holds stiff peaks. Fold in the almonds gently but thoroughly. (Do not beat in the almonds.) Spread the meringue over the batter, smoothing it, and bake the layers in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Let the layers cool in the pans on a rack. Run a knife around the edges, invert the layers onto rack, and discard the wax paper. The cake layers may be made 1 day in advance and kept wrapped in plastic wrap.
  • Make the orange filling:
  • In a heavy saucepan whisk together the sugar, the cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. In a bowl whisk together the zests, the juices, and the yolks and whisk the yolk mixture into the sugar mixture until the mixture is combined well. Bring the mixture to a boil, whisking, boil it gently, whisking, for 2 minutes, and let it cool, whisking occasionally.
  • Arrange one of the layers, meringue side up, on a serving plate, spread half the orange filling on it, and spread half the chopped strawberries on the filling. Arrange another layer, meringue side up, on the strawberries, spread the remaining filling on it, and spread the remaining chopped strawberries on the filling. Arrange the remaining layer, meringue side up, on the strawberries. The cake may be assembled up to this point 6 hours in advance and kept covered with plastic wrap and chilled.
  • In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the cream until it holds soft peaks, beat in the confectioners' sugar, and beat the cream until it holds stiff peaks. Transfer the cream to a pastry bag fitted with a star tip and pipe a circle of it decoratively around the top edge of the cake. Pipe another circle of cream 1 inch inside the first circle, pipe a rosette in the center, and pipe another circle of cream around the base of the cake. Quarter lengthwise 10 of the reserved strawberries, arrange them decoratively inside the concentric circles, and arrange the remaining strawberry on the rosette.

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

For meringue layers
7 large egg whites
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
For strawberry sauce
3 pints strawberries (about 2 pounds)
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 cup well-chilled heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 quart vanilla ice cream
Garnish:
Garnish: trimmed whole strawberries

Steps:

  • Make meringue layers:
  • Do not preheat oven. Butter two 10-inch springform pans.
  • In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat whites with cream of tartar and a pinch salt until they just hold soft peaks. Add granulated sugar a little at a time, beating, and beat meringue until it is very glossy and holds soft peaks. Fold in vanilla and divide meringue between springform pans, smoothing tops. Put pans in upper and lower thirds of oven and set oven to 275°F. Bake meringue layers, switching position of pans halfway through baking, 45 minutes total. Cool meringue layers in pans on racks and carefully remove sides of pans. Meringue will be crisp on the outside and marshmallowy on the inside. Meringue layers may be made 1 day ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.
  • Make strawberry sauce ( about 1 1/2 hours before serving):
  • Trim strawberries and quarter lengthwise. In a bowl sprinkle strawberries with granulated sugar and toss to coat. With a potato masher gently crush strawberries until they begin to release their juices, being careful not to crush them to a pulp. Let strawberry sauce stand at room temperature until more juices are released, no more than 1 hour (otherwise sauce will be too liquid). In a bowl beat cream with confectioners' sugar until it just holds stiff peaks and chill while assembling cake. Slightly soften vanilla ice cream. Loosen meringue layers from pan bottoms and put 1 layer on a large cake plate. Working quickly, spread ice cream onto meringue on plate and top with remaining meringue layer. Spread whipped cream decoratively on top of cake and with a slotted spoon transfer 1 spoonful of strawberries from sauce onto center of top of cake.
  • Garnish outer edge of top of cake with whole strawberries and serve cake immediately with remaining strawberry sauce on the side.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (18 1/4 ounce) package yellow cake mix
1 1/3 cups orange juice
4 eggs, separated
1 1/2 teaspoons orange zest
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup sugar, plus
1/4 cup sugar, divided
2 cups whipping cream
2 pints fresh strawberries, divided

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine cake mix, orange juice, egg yolks and orange peel.
  • Beat on medium speed for 4 minutes.
  • Pour into two greased and floured 9-inch round baking pans; set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar on medium until foamy.
  • Gradually beat in 1 cup sugar, a tablespoon at a time on high until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved.
  • Spread the meringue even over both pans of cake batter.
  • Bake at 350°F for 35 minutes or until meringue is lightly browned.
  • Cool in pans on wire racks (meringue will crack).
  • Beat the cream until stiff peaks form.
  • Mash 1/2 cup of strawberries with remaining sugar; fold into whipped cream.

  • Carefully spread with about two-thirds of the cream mixture.

  • Repeat layers.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. Choose ripe strawberries and oranges, and make sure the eggs are fresh.
  • Don't overcook the meringue. The meringue should be stiff but still glossy. If you overcook it, it will become grainy and tough.
  • Be careful when folding the meringue into the batter. Fold it gently so that you don't deflate the meringue.
  • Bake the cake until it is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
  • If you don't have time to make the orange filling, you can substitute a jar of orange marmalade.

Conclusion:

Swedish Meringue Cake is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with a light and airy meringue, a creamy orange filling, and fresh strawberries. With its beautiful presentation and delicious flavor, this cake is sure to impress your guests.
