Preparation
Make the sponge cake: Beat the eggs and sugar for a few minutes until the mixture is light in color. Carefully fold in the flour and, finally, stir in the oil. Pour the batter into a cake ring (20 cm diameter) and bake at 180°C for about 20 minutes.
Mix the cream: While the sponge cake is cooling, mix the cream cheese, mascarino, espresso and powdered sugar until smooth. Pour the cream into a piping bag with a star-shaped nozzle.
Soak the base: Cut the cooled sponge cake out of the cake ring and cut in half lengthwise to create two cake layers. Place one of them on a plate and drizzle with espresso.
Assemble: Pipe the cream in dots onto the bottom layer. Then place the second layer on top and repeat the process. Finally, decorate with blueberries and flowers.
Decoration tips: For Mother's Day, decorate your cake with fresh blueberries and colorful flowers from the garden. This adds color and underlines the freshness and naturalness of the ingredients.
