A great cake recipe for any occasion:
Cut plums in half and remove seeds. Chop with a hand mixer or in a hand blender. Place in a frying pan with the jelling sugar and bring to the boil. Bubble for 3 min. Cool.
Meanwhile, beat eggs and sugar for about 10 minutes until light and fluffy. Add flour and fold in thoroughly.
Brush a piece of parchment paper with the melted butter and place it on a baking tray of about 35 x 40 cm (for a roulade). Spread the dough on it. Sprinkle almond flakes on the dough. Bake in a 160 °C oven for 20 minutes.
Immediately turn the sponge out onto another buttered parchment paper and cover with the inverted baking sheet. Cool the sponge completely under the baking sheet, it will stay nice and wet.
Spread the plum sauce on the sponge cake. Roll up the sponge cake into a roulade using the baking paper, pulling off the paper.
For the sauce, mix all ingredients to a creamy consistency. Serve with the roulade.
One roulade is enough for 8 to 10 servings.
