  3. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. First, pipe the meringue onto it, making wide stripes, leaving about 2 centimeters of empty space between them.

  4. Fill the empty spaces with the egg yolk batter, also piped from a piping bag. Place everything in the oven preheated to 160 degrees Celsius for about 35 minutes.

  5. While the pastry is baking, make the cream. Place mascarpone, sweet cream, and powdered sugar in a mixer and mix until a nice cream forms. The cream can also be prepared with an electric mixer.

  6. Once baked, cut the pastry in half lengthwise, flip it over, and remove the parchment paper from the bottom side. Let it cool.

  7. Spread strawberry jam on the cooled sponge. Then spread the mascarpone cream over the jam and cover with the other half of the sponge.

  8. Decorate the pastry on top with jam, powdered sugar, and fresh strawberries.
