Total prep time for this yummy, won't take you more than an hour, but the basis for the cream will have to do the day before. So, the juice of two medium lemons pour in a glass (250 ml) if juice is less than half cups, add in water to make half Cup of liquid. Pour the juice into a saucepan, add the zest of one lemon, the sugar and set on fire. Stirring bring to the boil and complete dissolution of sugar.

In three spoons of water, stir a spoonful of starch and pour it in the lemon juice, stir, cook until thick. We make a thick jelly. The whole procedure takes no more than five minutes. Cool cream and put it in the fridge overnight.

By the way, half squeezed lemon, with whom we have not removed the rind, you can wrap in cling film and store in the refrigerator for a week or even more before you need the zest for cooking the next culinary masterpiece.

The next day bake cake. Eggs, beat with sugar until a lush light weight. Then, continuing to whisk, pour in two tablespoons of hot water. The water should be very hot, almost boiling water. You will see how the egg weight increased directly in the eyes.

Then into the beaten eggs add the flour and baking powder, gently mixing. Pour the dough on the baking tray lined with baking paper and bake in the oven at 170 degrees for about 15-20 minutes.

The finished cake is completely cool, trim the edges and cut it into three equal strips.

And now the most delicious, we prepare our miracle cream. For this we whisk the cream to firm peaks and add to them our cooled lemon "jelly". He can move water, do not worry, just stir it with a spoon. Whisk the cream until a homogeneous mass. At this stage it is worth to try the cream on the sugar. If the cream is sweet enough, it's time to pour some sugar, and powdered sugar better, so she quickly disappeared. Optionally, you can add gelatin. Three plates of gelatine to soak for a few minutes in water, then heat in a small amount of water (a couple tablespoons) to dissolve, cool and pour in cream, whisking literally three seconds.

We coat our strips of sponge cake with cream collected here is a cake. Decorate it as best I can, I just did the strips and top with a little sprinkled zest. Put in refrigerator at least two hours, it would be better to leave in the fridge overnight, if you have enough will power.

Cut our "loaf" cakes, pour a Cup of tea and enjoy!

Bon appetit!
