  • 60 g Butter, unsalted

  • 140 g chocolate, dark

  • 8 pieces Egg, fresh

  • 200 g Powdered sugar

  • 2 bags Powdered sugar

  • 100 g Flour, Wheat, bread flour

  • 100 g Nuts, hazelnuts

  • 150 g chocolate, dark

  • 500 ml Sweet cream

  • 200 g chocolate, dark

  • 150 g Powdered sugar

  • 1 piece Egg, egg white, fresh

  • 150 g Sugar, white

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 170°C. Crack the eggs and carefully separate the yolks from the whites into two bowls. Break the chocolate into pieces. Place a saucepan on the stove and slowly heat the butter and chocolate over low heat until melted. Remove from heat. Beat half of the sugar, vanilla sugar, and yolks with an electric mixer until frothy. In another bowl, beat the egg whites with the remaining sugar until stiff peaks form.

  2. Slowly mix the beaten yolks with the melted (cooled) chocolate, then gently fold in half of the egg whites, flour, and hazelnuts. Finally, gently fold in the remaining egg whites. Line a cake pan with parchment paper, pour in half of the batter, and bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes. Store the remaining batter in the refrigerator. Remove the baked cake and let it cool on a rack. Line the cake pan again with parchment paper, pour in the remaining batter, and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Remove the baked cake and let it cool completely on a rack.

  3. Cut both cakes horizontally in half. Take the chocolate cream out of the refrigerator and beat it firmly with an electric mixer. Spread the cream over the bottom layers of the cakes. Place the top layers on the cream and gently press down.

  4. Cut one cake into 8 pieces. Place the whole cake in the center of a large serving plate and arrange the pieces of the other cake around it to form a rose shape. Prepare the dark chocolate glaze according to the package instructions and pour it over the cake and the pieces.

  5. Prepare the sugar glaze: beat the egg white with a whisk and gradually add powdered sugar, one spoonful at a time. Mix until you get a shiny and smooth white glaze (it should not be too runny). Fill a piping bag with the glaze and draw roses on the cake. Decorate the cake with colorful candies and serve.
