This wonder cake lives up to its name, the truth is that It is delicious and it is not cloying at all. It is the typical layer cake that is easy to assemble and causes admiration.
I have done it on several occasions, but this last one has been my gift for father's day and the truth I loved that my dad repeated, you can tell he liked it. And as a daughter, those details always make you excited.
Es very simple to doThe only thing that, in order for it to set well, I like to make it without haste and leave it in the fridge overnight. On some occasion I have made it in the morning for a snack and we have noticed that it lacked time to set, and it even fell apart.
Trick
Of course, if you want this cake to have more consistency and it fits you perfectly, do not hesitate to add gelatin.
Use 2 sheets of neutral gelatin, hydrate them well and add them to the cream. As the layer cools it will take on more body.
And the best of all is that gelatin, being tasteless, does not take away any of the strawberry flavor.
How to decorate the cake?
To decorate the cake you can use Strawberry jam. And how alternative, you can prepare this syrup:
G strawberries 150
50 g of water
1 cup of sugar
The juice of 1/2 lemon.
We grind 30 seconds, progressive speed 5-7-10. Then we program 5 minutes, varoma temperature, speed 4.
Let it cool and pour over the already curdled cake.
Wonder cake
An ideal cake to make the most of the strawberry season and surprise our guests.

You have not put strawberry jelly to make it pink?
or why is the cheese pink?
I love this cake !!
It does not have strawberry jelly, I like it better with the flavor of cheese and curd. That pink tone has been taken from what the jam has drained and because I made it the day before and it has had time to take color.
Cristina anyway, you can add strawberry jelly if you like and that way you will enhance the strawberry flavor more.
I don't do it, because if I don't have strawberries, I can decorate it with peach or any other fruit that we like, and a syrup.
If you try gelatin, tell me how was the result.
A kiss
Friend, I'm from Venezuela… I want to make the cake but give me a synonym for what the two envelopes of curd are ??? Thanks
Hello Betty, the curd sachets do the same function as neutral gelatin or agar-agar, but they have a sweet and very characteristic flavor. That is, to make the cake solid or curd, I would add neutral gelatin. I hope I've helped. A hug.
Betty, if you can't find curd envelopes, which are to thicken the cake, you can add powdered or sheet neutral gelatin.
A greeting.
And so much wonder !! I have never tasted such a rich cheesecake ... the only problem is that I couldn't put strawberries in the decoration ... but it turned out really good. Girls, thanks again for your recipes and advice, I think this week I'll get on with the roscón .. Greetings and happy holidays!
Thank you very much Amagoia. I also love this cake, it is soft and not cloying at all. I hope you like the roscón too. Merry Christmas!
I made the Christmas tree decorated with sweets and since my daughter is celiac, I substituted the sponge cake for the gluten-free yogurt. TRIUMPH, THANK YOU
I'm glad, Silvia !. It's nice to surprise our children. Thanks to you for seeing us.
MMMMHHHHHHHH PROBADLAS… DE VICIOOOO
FORGIVE ME REFER TO THE TRUFFLES TO THE AROMA OF ORANJAAA HAHAHAJ
It is not clear to me when and how I have to incorporate the gelatin sheets.
thanks in advance
Nat
I add them to the glass with the rest of the ingredients to make the cream and let it set, thanks to the gelatin.
What size of mold have you used?
Thank you.
Ana
Ana is the typical mold release mold, it is about 23 cm in diameter.
Hello! It is not clear to me how you decorate it without spoiling it. If you put the strawberries first and then the jam, how is it spread so that the strawberry slices do not move?
Thank you.
First we put the sliced strawberries and then we toss the jam on top. If you have trouble stretching it, you can put a few tablespoons in the thermomix glass and add a couple of tablespoons of water. 30 seconds at speed 5 and that way it will be easier for you to put it on.
I usually make the syrup and it is very easy to put it on the strawberries.
Hello!
I would like to make this cake for the weekend but I am not clear about one thing.
The 2 sheets of gelatin to how much amount of powdered gelatin are equivalent?
Congratulations !!, I love your blog
Cristina, I don't know exactly how much gelatin powder is, but I would add an envelope of powdered gelatin, I think it's enough. You will tell us how it turns out.
In the end I made it with the gelatin in sheets and it was a success !!
The truth is that it is delicious and is super easy to do.
Thanks for this blog, you save me from many.
Hello girls, first of all thank you very much for your recipes! I love it! I just made the wonderful cake and I don't know ... I got the impression that it was cut off when I went to put it in the mold, it's normal ?? everything was right on date ... I don't know what to do ... I'm going to let it curdle if what happens ...
How was the cake? it was cut to you, in the end. It has never happened to me, maybe it is the feeling that gave you hot but then set well.
All the best
Very good looking. The syrup place, could you put strawberry jelly on it?
I have not tried but it sure is great. If you dare, tell us how are you?
All the best
Delicious! Today I have prepared it for Mother's Day and we all love it. Congratulations to all the moms on the blog.
I haven't made this cake for a long time, but at home it is very successful. We love how it looks, how simple and fine it is. I'm glad you like it.
Today I made the cake but it did not come out, the problem was with the gelatin, first I put it in sheets without undone and they came out whole then I put the powdered gelatin, put it in the fridge and it has not set, I don't know how much time takes to set or what have I done wrong, could you help me? Thank you
Belén, these cakes that have to set, it is important that the ingredients are at room temperature so that they set better and if one is in the fridge you have to put it a few more minutes and then set well in the fridge. I always make these types of desserts from one day to the next and that way it settles better.
Hello girls. Today I made this cake and it turned out great. The syrup has been clear to me, it has not set me. You can tell me why it happened to me so that it turns out well again. Thank you very much and a big hug.
Maria Antonia, I don't put syrup to garnish on the strawberries. I put strawberry jam on it and it turns out very well.
Hello Sivia Today is my mother's birthday and I prepared the cake yesterday and it was delicious, everyone loved it.
Thank you very much
A hug from Gran Canaria
I'm glad you liked it and congratulations to your mother!
Today I prepared this cake for my little one's birthday and it turned out great, I'll tell you what they say. Tb I have prepared the train cake and I am crazy because they see it!
Thank you very much for your help!
Congratulations to your little one and I am glad that you succeeded with these delicious cakes!
I made it the day before yesterday for a barbecue last night and it didn't set, I tried it at a friend's house and I loved it, I made your recipe but I don't know why it didn't set, could it be that the gelatin sheets are small? how are yours? today I am trying again !!!
Eva, what a pity that it will not curdle. Many times it also depends on the temperature of the ingredients. When they have to curdle it is better to put them over time, such as milk, because otherwise it takes a long time for the thermomix to reach the temperature it needs to curdle and it would be necessary to put more minutes. Always put them on without problem and it will surely set.
How would it be with fruit in syrup? for example pinya or peach? what would you do with the syrup? Help me. Thanks a lot. I love your blog.
I would put the fruit on top and add jam of that flavor.
In the end I have done the same. Only with the recipe for the most strawberry, I make sweet milk music, I have used half of the recipe. In other words, half the cheeses and instead of strawberries I have put the dulce de leche. I'll tell you. Since I have made it for the 13th birthday of my granddaughters.
Great Cristina! Good changes. That is the important thing, adapting it to the needs and what we have at all times.
Hello, the jelly sheets that are the small ones (Hacendado brand) or the big ones. Thank you.
Greetings.
Hi Susana, they are one of the greats. Thank you!
I really like all the recipes that you send me. Can you tell me what invert sugar is
Hello Immaculate,
Invert sugar is a mixture of sugar, acidifier and raising agent that, together with water, makes it liquid. In confectionery it has many uses and until now it was only available to the great masters but now with the Thermomix anyone can have invert sugar to make ice cream, fluffier cakes, etc.
You can see the recipe here and in the blog of The Whimsical Spoon You will see that there are tables to substitute quantities that are very practical.
Kisses!
Hello, I would like to know how many sheets of gelatin are equivalent to 2 envelopes of curd.
The cake is very good, thank you.
Hello Jesus, in theory an envelope of curd is like 6 sheets of gelatin, you will tell us!
Let's go for the diet, ???? Trailara ????????
Madreeee my !!!! that paints !!!
It was my first cake !! They gave me the tmx, I found your blog and since then, 5 years ago, I have not stopped, thanks for your recipes!
The best cake I have ever made. Instead of putting jam on it, I put neutral gelatin on top of the strawberries so that it curdles a bit and that way the strawberries are better preserved and do not turn black brown in a few days.
Thanks for your recipe. The truth is that the name suits it a lot.
Thank you Luisa !! I am very happy that you liked. A hug and thanks for following us! 🙂
I have no questions, just say what was spectacular for me and it is very easy to do we all loved it, thank you.
