Cooking method

• 
• In addition, you will need:
• 3 cornets with attachments and 1 rectangular cake pan 10 * 20 cm, grease and sprinkle with flour.
• Preheat oven to 200^aboutFROM.
• This cake, as the author of the book "Baking according to GOST ..." writes, was originally conceived in the form of a log. It was produced in two main versions - in the form of a decorated roll and in the form of an oblong cake. In the form of a roll we have recipe... There is a completely different performance and the writing is very different from this.
• And so, we bake!
• Biscuit:
• 1. Beat the yolks with 2/3 of the sugar until a light, thick mixture is obtained.
• Sugar yolks:
• 
• 2. Whisk whites until peaks, add sugar and beat until firm and shiny (about a minute). It is not worth whipping the whites too much (as for meringue), the biscuit may rise poorly.
• Proteins with sugar:
• 
• 3. Gently mix the whites and yolks into a homogeneous mass.
• Yolks with proteins:
• 
• 4. Add the sifted flour and stir gently, but thoroughly and quite vigorously. Conveniently stir from the edge of the bowl, lowering the dough into the middle while turning the bowl.
• Dough:
• 
• 5. Pour the finished dough into a greased and floured dish.
• 6. Bake for 25 minutes at 200^aboutC. Readiness is determined with a wooden stick - no raw dough should remain on it, or by pressing - the surface should spring. In exactly 25 minutes, the biscuit was ready.
• 
• 7. Cool the finished biscuit in the mold for 5 minutes, then turn over onto the wire rack.
• 
• Ready biscuit 5 minutes after the oven:
• The biscuit turned out to be airy, weightless.
• 8. Leave to seal the structure for 12 hours. I baked in the evening, left it on the wire rack overnight, turned it over in the morning and put it in a plastic bag so as not to dry out, because I planned to collect the cake in the evening.
• 9. Place the seasoned biscuit with the wider side on the board and cut off the top corners, giving a semicircular shape. Cut the biscuit into 3 layers.
• 
• 10. The resulting trimmings, if possible, grate, I just crumbled it with my hands, put on a baking sheet and fry for 10-15 minutes at 200^aboutFrom to brown. It was easier for me to put it in the airfryer for 12 minutes at the maximum temperature. I opened it periodically, controlled the degree of drying and additionally grinded large pieces of dried biscuit into crumbs. Cool and mix with a teaspoon of cocoa powder.
• 11. Prepare the impregnation syrup: pour boiling water over the sugar, stir until completely dissolved (I boiled it) and add cognac. Cool it down.
• Charlotte cream:
• 12. Prepare the syrup, for which mix the yolks with milk, sugar and vanilla sugar, strain (I did not filter, I stirred it all the time with a whisk, there were no lumps), bring to a boil over low heat and cook for a few minutes until thickened. Cool the syrup. Beat the softened butter until it becomes almost white, add a little syrup, and then brandy, whisking thoroughly each time. Divide the cream in half. Add cocoa to one half and whisk well. Set aside two heaping tablespoons of white cream, tint one part pink with jam, the other green with spinach juice.I used dyes. A little bit of green and orange dye (at the very tip of a narrow knife) she diluted with brandy (about 0.3 tsp) and mixed with cream.
• Assembly:
• 13. Soak all layers of biscuit with syrup, coat the bottom two with white cream. Coat the whole cake with chocolate cream and sprinkle, except the top, with fried sponge crumbs with cocoa.
• 
• Prepare three cornetics:
• a) put the green cream in a cornet with a leaf attachment,
• b) in a cornet with a toothed attachment - pink,
• c) into a flat-toothed cornet - the remaining chocolate cream.
• Make strips on the surface of the cake with chocolate cream, leaving no gap between them. On the resulting corrugated surface, plant flowers and leaves of multi-colored cream. Decorate the cake with candied fruit and refrigerate. In the original, candied fruits should be made from watermelon crusts, I used those that were - pineapple, mango.
• 
• 
• Here is my cake!

The dish is designed for

Approx. 1 kg mold 25 * 11 height 7

Time for preparing:

2-2.5 hours

Note

I baked this simple cake as a gift, I wanted to post photos in the topic, I was very surprised that we don't have such a recipe.
I know that the attitude towards him is ambiguous, for some he is nice, some maliciously call him soviet. For me, he is associated with childhood, so I don't see anything wrong with him. Simple in execution, good for novice pastry chefs, because the recipe is a win-win, everyone can repeat it! I found the recipe from Irina Chadeeva in the book "Baking according to GOST, the taste of our childhood. Culinary hits of the Soviet era."
Bon Appetit!

Merriwhat a beautiful cake !!!! Lovely !! Thank you!

[Rada-dms]

Rada-dms, first impressions for midwives! Thank you!

Oh, how I once loved these all sorts of "Fairy Tales" when they could still be eaten.
We must try to do it too. Irish, thanks for the recipe! It seems that everything is simple, we can, and I will get something worthwhile.
You did it smartly! A new fotik, I suppose, Fotala?

And I still want as much as I want "Night"

I immediately felt the taste of candied fruits in my mouth! It was so small (cake)! And delicious!

some maliciously call him Sovdepov

I've never heard this! And in general - do not like it - do not eat!

How to separate the yolks from the film?

And I still want the passion "Night"

today I was in the shop of the Dobryninsky cake plant, I really respect their cakes, the taste of childhood, so to speak. And I bought a night for a promotion. I was so disappointed! The cream is delicious, and the biscuit is like a sweet baked and not risen Borodino bread. So dry, dry and very dense, don't be too dry. I was terribly upset - such a sweet, delicious cream and such an ugly biscuit. This is the first time I took the night, should the biscuit really be dense according to the recipe?
and I decided to grind the cake with a blender and make potatoes out of it - it will be as it should)))

[Vei]

Vei, I remember the "Nochki" biscuit very dry, but loose. To be honest, I literally ate it a couple of times as a child, so my opinion may be wrong.

[Merri]

Merri, Ira, thanks for the recipes from this book, I still won't go broke on it, and lately I've been drawn to these Soviet cakes, they were good!
my favorite was Wenceslas, is there his recipe? and more potatoes))) can you bake them for us too, will you put them out?

[Irisha]

Irishawhat a fabulous "Fairy Tale" sorry for the tautology you did it !!!

This is not the first year I have been dancing round dances around this "Fairy Tale", I still cannot make up my mind ...

was very surprised that we do not have such a recipe

By the way, I too ...

I remember exactly that this cake, exactly according to the recipe from Chadeyka's LJ, was baked by our * Anyuta * ...

I still won't go broke on her

Lizonka, so Irina has all the recipes in LJ)) ...

"Wenceslas in accordance with GOST" is here: 🔗

Potato cake from Chadeyki here ...

Here's another Irinina "Potato" glazed, but not according to GOST ...

Irina, thanks for the cake recipe. I will definitely bake it. Only there is no such form, well, I'll think about how to do it. It is the taste of childhood. And what is the nozzle for the leaves? I do not know how to decorate

Ira is telepathy. Yesterday I was tormented with a choice between cream baskets and a Fairy Tale. I chose a recipe for baskets, but no fairy tale. And then yours !!! My husband loved this cake as a child. While baking baskets, and bookmark the Fairy Tale.

Thank you!! Delicious cake! I have a book by Chadeeva and I love it very much. I try to make any confectionery out of it.

This is my favorite cake in my distant childhood. I don’t know how from anyone, it was problematic to buy it from us, and when my mother brought "Fairy Tale", it was a real holiday for us! Thanks for the recipe! Definitely bookmarked.

the most favorite cake in my distant childhood

But I didn't like "Fairy Tale" as a child, for me this cake was about nothing ...

Sweet and dry - that's all my meager memories of "Fairy Tale" ...

The only thing that I ate from the "Fairy Tale" was candied fruit on top, although I still don't understand what I liked about that candied fruit ... sweet and that's all) ...

But now, if religion would allow, I would poison myself with a piece ...

[Tasha]

Girls, here's another "Fairy Tale" is from Tasha, the composition is only different, the biscuit is made with sour cream https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/in...on=com_smf&topic=170588.0

[Crochet]

Crochet, we had it in the form of a roll of tender, syrup-soaked sponge cake, in the very middle there was a delicious sour cherry jam, creamy white inside, and on top there was a very tasty bitter chocolate cream and decorated with flowers and mushrooms.

A new fotik, I suppose, Fotala?

And then!
Thank you all for stopping by for a cup of tea! I report, I took the cake as a gift, I was treated to it, I stealthily took a picture of a piece:


I liked the cake! One, like in childhood, from a culinary store (now it sounds "from the store" like poison, but before everything was done on natural products, strictly according to GOST! Without chemicals). Sweet one, one piece is enough. I don't really understand why they love savory cakes. Because you can eat more of them? The calories are the same. Well, okay, in general, I'm quite happy with the result!

How to separate the yolks from the film?

I considered it overkill. There were no lumps anywhere, but I wrote in the recipe like the author's.

my favorite was Wenceslas, is there his recipe? and more potatoes))) can you bake them for us too, will you put them out?

Lisa, I baked Wenceslas a few years ago, I really liked it! Homemade roasted nuts sprinkle turns a simple cake into a masterpiece! I don’t remember why I didn’t post this recipe, maybe it already exists or I wasn’t here yet.
And there are potatoes! Real, from scraps of biscuits! I just love this book too!

This is not the first year I have been dancing round dances around this "Fairy Tale", I still cannot make up my mind ...

Inna, he probably seems too simple to you!

And what is the nozzle for the leaves? I do not know how to decorate

The nozzle is round such, with a protrusion-tongue hanging down into the lumen, it divides the squeezed mass into two streams, which form a kind of leaves. I also do not know how to decorate, but I try it with pleasure!

That's it, now I definitely want it! What a delicious cutter!
And congratulations on the new fotik, Irish!

[Firecracker]

Firecracker, Elena, but this is, after all, a completely different cake! Natalya "Fairy Tale" I also baked, there are my photos in her theme. They have only a common name.

And congratulations on the new fotik, Irish!

Lena, thanks! This is a balm for my soul! Razrezik, as you know, was made in a hurry by the phone, she was ashamed to go to congratulate with a new camera.

was ashamed to go to congratulate with a new camera.

And hello, it was necessary to show off!
For the first time, I also poked my fotik into anyone's nose. And nefig - pus praise, I do not know!

No, it was impossible! I know that my sister's husband really wants a DSLR, but he doesn't! I would ruin his holiday!

[Merri]

Merri, Irina with another tasty treat, thank you !!!
I often bake your baskets, now I need to make this cake too. But after a week, my boys do not have time to eat all the sweets, which I cook according to recipes from the forum. The cake is still there and there are still pancakes. Today I started telling my son that I cook, but they don't eat anything. So he answered me - so you, mother, cook without fanaticism, otherwise we do not have time to eat, and you have already prepared something new. So I'll take a break.
I still haven't bought this book in elektr. I often look at it, I really like it.

[Irina.]

Irina., Thank you so much! A cake without frills, for a family tea party, but so cozy!

I baked with logs a year ago, according to Chadeika, that is, how's your recipe! As a child, I did not try this and did not see it on sale, but in vain they did not sell it! simple and delicious!

[Crochet]

Crochet, we had it in the form of a roll of tender, syrup-soaked sponge cake, in the very middle there was a delicious sour cherry jam, creamy white inside, and on top there was a very tasty bitter chocolate cream and decorated with flowers and mushrooms.

One to one description of my favorite baby cake, I adored it to shiver
Mary, thank you very much for the recipe, I will definitely cook it, only roll

[Olesya]

Olesya, in my childhood they sold different options, the first of the memorable ones was a roll, then more often a log. You see, Chadeyka got to the bottom of that, it turns out, the log is the original recipe!

I don’t remember the roll. Only a log.

I don’t remember the roll. Only a log.

I spent my childhood in different cities.

[Merri]

Merri, Ira, thanks for the recipe !!! Just like in childhood ...
My mother and I were now remembering how much "Fairy Tale" cost. I don't really remember, but my mother says - ruble forty-nine ... In memory!
We sometimes went to the pastry shop with my mother on the way from the kindergarten and bought a "Fairy Tale". And for the money it was acceptable, and was eaten at a time, but it was delicious !!! I ate flowers and cream, my parents had biscuits ...
Tomorrow I will bake, I will make my mother happy, she is lying all over me with a cold. So the recipe is on time !!!
