Oh baby, I hope you’re hungry because this Strawberry Charlotte Royale Cake cake is out of this world. Imagine a jelly roll with strawberry preserves, sliced and then filled with creamy Strawberry Bavarian cream.

Doesn’t that sound like the perfect summer dessert?

This dessert is not heavy or super sweet. It’s absolutely perfect and well balanced. The inside is made with real strawberries with a creamy, yet airy texture that compliments the sponge cake with the tangy jam inside.

You gotta hand it to the french, they are geniuses when it comes to baking. Their classic cakes are the perfect balance of flavor and texture.

Granted, some of them take days and to make, and many need a visual diagram on their cookbooks on how to assemble them. BUT, I chose to show you this Strawberry Charlotte Royale Cake because it’s stunning and not so hard to make.

I didn’t use a special mold to get the dome shape. I just used a medium mixing bowl I had lying around in my kitchen.

For the process: First I made a regular jelly roll sponge cake. You can see the step by step process in this Dulce de Leche Roll  last year.  I filled it up with strawberry jam and rolled up in a log shape.

Then I cut into thin slices and arranged them tightly inside a regular mixing bowl (for the dome shape). Then I poured in the strawberry Bavarian cream and covered it with a sponge bake top. Then I refrigerated the cake for a few hours until set.

Ingredients

For Jelly Roll Cake

  • 6 Eggs separated
  • 6 Tablespoons Flour
  • 3 Tablespoons Sugar
  • 3/4 Cup Strawberry Preserves
  • 1 drop red food coloring optional

For Strawberry Bavarian Cream

  • 1/2 oz Gelatin 1/2 Envelope
  • 1/3 cup Water
  • 3 Egg Yolks
  • 1/4 Cup Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Milk
  • 4 oz Strawberries
  • 1 Cup Heavy Cream
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

For Jelly Roll Cake

  • Preheat oven to 325 Degrees Fahrenheit
  • Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper or silicone mats
  • In a mixer, mix the egg yolks and sugar until pale in color and mixture becomes thicker. About 3-4 minutes
  • Meanwhile, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form
  • Using a spatula, fold in the whipped egg whites into the egg yolk mixture in 3 installments. Make sure you do not deflate the egg whites
  • Fold in the flour, one tablespoon at a time until combined
  • Place 3/4 of the mixture into one sheet pan. Spread it out into an even thin layer
  • Place the other 1/4 of the mixture into the second sheet pan (this will be the bottom of the cake). Spread this mixture until it covers about the size of the bottom of the cake
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cooked. Do not overcook
  • Remove from oven and place a clean kitchen towel on top until the cake cools. This will allow the cake to sweat making it easy to roll
  • When cake is completely cool. Spread the strawberry jam on the first sheet pan (not on the second one). Carefully roll it tightly into a log
  • Wrap the roll with plastic paper and refrigerate for a couple of hours (for easy cutting)

For Strawberry Bavarian Cream

  • In a small bowl, place the gelatin and water. Mix and set aside
  • In another bowl, mix in the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture turns pale and become thicker. About 3-4 minutes
  • Warm the milk in the microwave (milk should not be boiling hot)
  • Slowly mix the in the milk into the yolks
  • Place this mixture on top of a double boiler with simmering water underneath. Use a wooden spoon to stir until the yolk and milk mixture becomes thicker. About 4-5 minutes
  • Meanwhile puree the strawberries using a blender or a food processor. Strain if desired
  • Remove the milk mixture from the heat. Add the bloomed gelatin and strawberries. Mix well with a whisk
  • Place this mixture into the freezer for 10-15 minutes to cool but not set
  • In a mixer, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form
  • Fold the heavy cream into the strawberry cream in 2-3 installments being careful not to deflate the cream. Add the red food coloring if desired

Assembly

  • Use a medium mixing bowl and line it with plastic paper leaving an overlapping border of paper
  • Measure the exact bottom size using the 2nd sponge cake and cut to size
  • Cut the jelly roll into thin slices and place them neatly inside the bowl making sure there are virtually no gaps between them
  • Pour in the bavarian cream
  • Place the top of the cake
  • Cover with plastic paper
  • Refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours or until the cake is set
  • Turn the set cake into a plate to unmold
  • If desired, brush the surface with melted apricot jam to give it a little shine
  • Enjoy!
