For the cake: place the eggs with the sugar and one tablespoon of vanilla or lemon zest in a mixer at maximum speed, waiting for the volume to increase. Stop the mixer and add sifted flour in three parts until incorporated; be careful: just mix, do not beat. Pour into a previously greased and floured 25-centimeter mold, and bake for 25 minutes at 180 °C. Let cool and unmold. Set aside. For the lemon syrup: place the water along with the sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil; after 2 minutes of boiling, add the lemon zest and let it simmer until the syrup forms, approximately 2 minutes more. Remove from heat and add the orange liqueur. Let cool, and once cold, add mango supremes. Set aside. For the vanilla frosting: in a mixer, cream the butter and vegetable shortening, then add the cream cheese, vanilla, or lemon zest, letting it mix for about 3 minutes, then add the powdered sugar. Finally, add milk if the mixture lacks texture; if not, do not add anything. Mix for about 10 minutes and set aside. For the false mango caviar: blend the pulp with the alginate until there are no lumps, let it rest. Then, in 500 milliliters of mineral water, dissolve the calcium chloride (blend it). Using a syringe without a needle, fill it with the pulp mixture and drop droplets into the calcium chloride mixture; after 30 seconds, remove from the water and rinse with purified water, set aside. For assembly: cut the cake into three parts, soak with the lemon syrup, add vanilla frosting and mango supremes. Cover with the other part of the cake and repeat the procedure until finished. Then cover the entire cake with the frosting. Finally, decorate with the false mango caviar and the whole piece of mango.
