Preparation Time:
- Preparation time: 30 minutes
- Baking time: 25 minutes
- Total time: 55 minutes
- Servings: 8

Ingredients:
- 7 eggs
- 5 tablespoons of sugar
- 7 tablespoons of flour
- 5 tablespoons of oil
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar
- 1 essence of vanilla
- 200 g of white chocolate (chopped into squares)
- 1 packet of clear gelatin
- 25 ml of liquid cream
- 1 packet of cream stabilizer
- Fruits: canned strawberries, kiwi, red grapes, mandarins

Necessary Utensils:
- Round cake pan with removable bottom (20-24 cm)
- Mixer
- Mixing bowls
- Spatula
- Serving platter or cardboard plate

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1: Preparing the Pan
Start by preparing the pan. Grease the form well with butter and dust it with flour to ensure that the cake will come out easily after baking.

Step 2: Preparing the Cake Base
1. Separate the eggs: In a large bowl, separate the egg whites from the yolks. Make sure no yolk remains in the egg whites; otherwise, they won't whip well.
2. Beat the egg whites: Using the mixer, beat the egg whites with the sugar until you get a stiff meringue that forms firm peaks. This step is crucial for achieving an airy cake base.
3. Add the yolks: Gradually incorporate the beaten yolks, gently folding with a spatula to avoid losing air from the meringue.
4. Incorporate the dry ingredients: Sift the flour and vanilla sugar over the egg mixture and gently mix. Finally, add the oil and mix until smooth.

Step 3: Baking the Cake Base
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 25 minutes. Check the cake with a toothpick: if it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Let it cool in the pan, then carefully remove it.

Step 4: Preparing the Whipped Cream
1. Whip the cream: In another bowl, whip the liquid cream with the cream stabilizer according to the instructions on the package. Make sure the cream becomes firm, but do not overbeat it, or it will turn into butter.
2. Cool: Once the cake base has completely cooled, divide it into three equal parts.

Step 5: Assembling the Cake
1. First layer: Place the first layer of cake on the platter and soak it with a few tablespoons of the strawberry syrup. Add a thin layer of whipped cream, followed by the cleaned and thinly sliced fruits.
2. Continue with the layers: Repeat the process with the second layer of cake, soaking it and adding whipped cream and fruits.
3. Final touch: Place the last layer of cake on top and press gently to secure it. Cover the entire surface and edges of the cake with whipped cream.

Step 6: Final Decorations
1. Decorate with chocolate: Sprinkle white chocolate flakes around the edges, and on top, you can decorate with finely sliced fruits and add the gelatin prepared according to the package instructions.
2. Whipped cream spray: Use whipped cream spray to give the cake an elegant look.

Serving Suggestions
Serve the cake alongside a glass of fresh lemonade or fruit tea. This will perfectly complement the sweet and fragrant taste of the cake. It is also delicious with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
