Instructions
1
Bake the cake base
First bake the cake until fully cooked, then shape it, usually into a round cake base.
2
Make the meringue with agar
Cook the agar agar until dissolved, then pour it into the already whipped egg whites to form a meringue mixture. Spread it over the cake surface, then pipe decorative patterns on top.
3
Apply the glaze
Immediately pour the thin agar syrup over the surface. Once it sets, it covers the cake like a sheet of glass.
