Cooking

Knead the dough 4 eggs, flour and 200 g of sugar, add baking powder. Pour in the form (20cm) and bake at 200 degrees until done, test with a dry skewer. The finished cake cool, and cut into 2 Korzh.

For lemon cream squeeze juice from lemons (if no juicer, the whole lemons first put on 5-10 minutes in boiling water then let it cool down, the juice will squeeze out much easier), add sugar, eggs and softened butter. All mix well and cook on medium heat with constant stirring until thick. Cool

Coat the cakes with lemon curd and remove on time in the refrigerator(better if overnight then the cream will harden properly and will keep good form)

For sour cream. Sour cream drain in a cloth and hung overnight so the excess liquid glass (in this time our cake will harden in the fridge). Then stecchi sour cream add 1-2 tbsp of sugar and a tablespoon of lemon cream, all carefully mix before reception of homogeneous mass (in the original recipe instead of sour cream 125ml whipping cream with sugar and mix with mascarpone cheese 200g)

For marzipan almonds pour the boiling water and allow to stand, then clean the skins, dry them. Dry fry the almonds in a clean frying pan and grind (the finer the better).

The almonds add the egg and a teaspoon of lemon juice, mix well and enter the powdered sugar in small portions until the mixture becomes elastic, like clay, and will not cease to stick to hands.

On top of the cake to put the sour cream closer to the edge layer thicker. A little to leave for decoration.

Marzipan mass roll out into a circle the diameter of the cake or cut the desired range of diameters. Chocolate melted in a water bath and covered them with the marzipan circle. Give the chocolate to set, cut the circle into 16 triangles. And put them in a circle on top of cake. One of the sides of the triangle lightly pressed into the cream to one area were a bit higher than the other.

Decorate the cake as desired, the remnants of sour cream and slices of lemon and lime. You can bring to the table.
