Strawberry n Cream Layered Sponge Pancake - Pancake Quad #2



Remember the sponge pancake?

It was a lazy afternoon and I had some Korean strawberries and lots of cream in the fridge waiting for me to use use use. Let's just say, 3 cartons of half used or quarter used whipping cream, altogether 1.6L. Blame them on bake orders. They all came 5 days apart and I never sell bakes made from an old pack of cream (more than 3 days). Always new pack. Which is why I always had to think of ways to use up the balance.  And the amount I needed was more than 200ml each time, so to purchase 2 small packs of cream is just not economical.

FYI, I do keep my cream for more than 3 days as the cream available here is not farm fresh but UHTed already. I always do a taste test after 7 days before I use them, and after 7 days, the cream is always cooked/baked before consumption. Any longer then 14 days, I'll freeze them til GKW. My record was keeping them for 3 weeks in the fridge. Don't worry, they only get consumed, never sold.

This time, I did a simple tea time treat for my loved ones and the whole thing was gobbled up in just one sitting.

Easy and nice.

Refer here for sponge pancake recipe.
Just do 3 batches of it separately. Do not be greedy and beat 3 batches together. Chances are, the batter will get deflated before it is even cooked.

Then, just beat some cream, pipe it over the pancakes and top with strawberries.

Yummeh.....

    Gert,
    hehe,that was the idea. A quick and easy cake done over fire


    Mamasya,
    Hope you like it


    Lena,
    haha, yeah, I knew it oredi, but then, it still came in 200ml packs, selling for RM6 something. Buying 2 small packs is almost equal to buying 1 large pack. Not worth it la, I'd rather use the same amount of money and buy a large pack.
    Can cook (pasta) and bake (puddings) with the frozen cream, as long as it needs no whipping.
    There are a lot of recipes that needs some cream, and if I cannot use up, then I'll cook pasta or make ice cream, which is the fastest way.

  15. Hi wendy, I did try the recipe of this fluffy pancake but it turns out that it has this strong egg smell as its cooked. Is there any ways to make the smell less obvious? Thanks :)
