  • For the cake batter, in a bowl with a mixer, cream the butter with the sugar and add the Huevo San Juan® pieces one by one, then add the vanilla, the powders, and the milk. Beat until a smooth mixture is obtained.
  • In a previously greased mold with butter, pour the cake mixture and bake at 180 °C for 25 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool.
  • For the cake filling, beat the cream cheese for 5 minutes until smooth, then add the whipping cream, powdered sugar, and almond extract. Beat for another 10 minutes until you have a smooth mixture. Set aside.
  • For the marzipan topping, in a bowl, beat the egg whites from Huevo San Juan® with lemon juice until their volume increases and they become airy. Mix the flour with the powdered sugar in a separate container.
  • Add the rum to the beaten egg whites and gradually pour in the flour with powdered sugar; knead until a homogeneous dough forms. Cover with plastic and set aside.
  • Place on a board and trim the edges of the cakes, removing the excess.
  • Spread half with the cream cheese mixture, place the other half of the cake on top, and cover the entire cake with the cream cheese mixture. Chill for 20 minutes.
  • Sprinkle powdered sugar over the surface and roll out the dough with a rolling pin until it is half a centimeter thick. Cover the cake and smooth it out with your hand.
  • Place a stencil over the cake and sprinkle with powdered sugar, decorate with strawberries. Serve with coffee or tea.
