Instructions

  • Start by putting the coconut milk in the refrigerator overnight.
  •  The next day, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) .  Prepare the sponge cake.  To do this, stir all the moist ingredients together and then add the dry ingredients.  Just stir briefly until everything comes together to form a batter.
  •  Put the dough in a 26cm springform pan lined with parchment paper.  Bake the bottom for about 20 minutes.
  •  Do the toothpick test.
  •  Let the base cool completely.
  •  Now prepare the cream layer.  Take the coconut milk and put the solid part of it in a mixing bowl.  Now whip up the firm cream.  Slowly add the yogurt and sweetener.
  •  Boil the water with the agar.  Let it cool down a bit.  And put it in a mixing bowl.  Use a hand mixer to slowly stir in the cream.  Be careful not to create lumps.
  •  Now put a cake ring around the base and slowly let the cream run on it.
  •  Put the cake in the refrigerator.
  •  Drain the mandarins, catching the liquid.
  •  Now prepare the jello.  To do this, bring all the ingredients to a boil in a small saucepan.  Do the gel test on a cold plate.  When it sets, you can let the icing cool down a bit.
  •  Take the cake and spread the tangerines on it.
  •  When the icing is cold enough, you can distribute this evenly over the mandarins.
  •  Put the cake in the refrigerator overnight for at least 3 hours.
