  4. On a piece of parchment, draw a circle of the desired diameter. Transfer the protein-nut mass into a pastry bag and form a cake on a parchment greased with vegetable oil. The resulting mass should be divided into 2 cakes. Bake the pie at 150 degrees for 20 minutes. Then we do not cool the cake much and remove the parchment. We do the same with the second cake.

  5. For sponge cakes, it is necessary to separate the yolks from the proteins. Add water and 65 g of powdered sugar to the yolks, beat into a foam. Whisk the whites separately with the remaining powdered sugar. Gently combine the two egg masses.

  11. Before assembling the cake, with the help of a pastry ring, it is necessary to trim the edges on all cakes so that they are the same. Put the trimmings and 1/4 of the roasted nuts in a blender and grind into a homogeneous crumb. We'll sprinkle them on the pie.

  15. Sprinkle the finished cake with crumbs and leave to soak for 3 hours at room temperature. Then we put the pie in the refrigerator. You can make a cake at your discretion. I decorated it with sugar cranberries and blueberries. In summer, of course, it would be more appropriate to decorate with currant berries.
