  • Place butter in a small sauce pan and heat on low until melted. Set aside.
  • Add the eggs to your sugar preparation. Beat on a Medium high speed until lighter in color and double in size. (About 3 minutes).
  • Stir in the heavy whipping cream and clementine juice. Carefully fold in the flour, baking powder and salt. Then, add the cooled melted butter. Mix until combined.
  • Gently pour the preparation in the Flexipan® and flatten with your spatula.
  • Bake for 60 minutes at 310F/150C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your cake from 50min).  It is ready when the toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Once your Clementine winter cake is out of the oven, let it cool down for about 10min. Then, Unmold and pour your clementine glaze topped with clementine zest. Serve and enjoy! Bon appétit!
