   Instructions

   1. First you need to make the dough. Add 300 grams of all purpose flour, 115 grams of white caster sugar, 115 grams of granulated sugar, 5 grams of baking powder, 2 grams of salt, the zest of 1 lemon, 1.5 grams of baking soda, 210 grams of unsalted butter and 25 grams of egg to your kitchen machine. Mix everything well until a nice dough forms.
   2. Knead the dough gently and wrap it in foil.
   3. Let the dough rest in the fridge for 1 hour.
   4. After one hour roll the dough 1 cm thick.
   5. Create two authentic shapes. You can add a layer of almond paste in the middle (1 cm from each side). This is optional.
   6. Bake for 30 minutes (160°C)
   7. To make the pastry cream add 300 milliliters of milk and 1 vanilla pod to a saucepan. Heat the milk on medium low.
   8. Next add 3 egg yolks and 60 grams of granulated sugar to a mixing bowl. Mix everything together.
   9. The cakes are now ready. Let them cool.
   10. Then add 20 grams of cornstarch to the mixing bowl. Mix everything together.
   11. Add the warm milk little by little in the mixing bowl. When the mixture is mixed together let the pastry cream thicken by heating it au bain marie. When the cream is ready let it cool to room temperature.
   12. To make the whipped cream add 100 grams of powdered sugar and 600 milliliters of fresh cream to your kitchen machine. The whipped cream is ready when you can make soft peaks.
   13. Divide the pastry cream into two piping bags. Add on the chocolate/strawberry variant a layer of pastry cream. For the advocaat version you can add optional 60 milliliters of advocaat liqueur to the pastry cream.
   14. Then cut 100 grams of strawberries in half. First add a layer of strawberries on the side. Next add the whipped cream in the middle. Finish the cake with chocolate shavings on top.
