Equipment

  • cake pan with removable sides
  • hand mixer

Ingredients
  

For the sponge

  • 5 eggs
  • 200 g sugar
  • 150 g flour
  • 1 tsp orange extract
  • 40 ml canola oil
  • 40 g cocoa powder
  • pinch salt

For the cream

  • 250 g mascarpone cold
  • 500 g cream cheese room temp
  • 100 g butter softened
  • 150 g powdered sugar
  • 50 g granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the jelly

  • 1 liter fanta orange soda
  • 100 g cornstarch
  • 100 g sugar

Instructions
 

To make the sponge

  • Preheat oven to 350℉.
  • Using a hand mixer, combine eggs, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Mix on high until fluffy and light in color, volume should double or triple in size.
  • Add the cocoa powder and mix on low until just combined.
  • Using a spatula, fold in the oil and orange extract. Be gentle as you don’t want to lose the volume you just created with the eggs.
  • Little by little, fold in the flour.
  • Line a 13x9 inch cake pan (preferably something big with detachable walls) with parchment paper or grease/butter it. Pour cake batter into pan and bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Leave in the pan and set aside to cool.

To make the jelly

  • In a large pot over low heat, add the soda and cornstarch. Stir to combine.
  • Add the sugar. Boil, stirring constantly until it thickens.
  • When the jelly is thick, remove from the heat.
  • Transfer to a bowl and cover directly with plastic wrap. This will keep a film from forming on top of the jelly. Set aside to cool to room temp.

To make the cream

  • In a bowl, add the butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla/regular sugar. Using a hand mixer, cream until light and fluffy.
  • Add cream cheese and vanilla extract. Beat until combined.
  • Last, add the cold mascarpone. Beat until combined. Be careful not to over beat as it will separate.

Assembly

  • On top of the cooled cake, add the cream. Spread into an even layer.
  • Add the jelly on top of the cream, spreading into another even layer.
  • Place cake in the fridge for at least 6 hours or best overnight.
  • When you’re ready to eat, remove the walls of the cake tin and slice to serve!
