Hugo Cake

  1. Slice the sponge cake horizontally into two even layers.
  2. Place the first layer on a cake plate and secure a cake ring around it.
  3. Spread half of the cream evenly over the sponge layer.
  4. Top with the second sponge layer and spread the remaining cream smoothly on top.
  5. Chill for about 2 hours to allow the cream to set.

Step 4 – Make the Glaze

  1. Prepare the clear glaze according to the package instructions using elderflower syrup and water as the liquid.
  2. Let it cool slightly, then pour evenly over the chilled cake to create a smooth, glossy surface.
  3. Decorate with fresh mint sprigs for a signature Hugo touch.

Step 5 – Serve

Carefully remove the cake ring before serving. Slice and enjoy this elegant, floral, and refreshing dessert that perfectly embodies the flavor of a Hugo cocktail! 💚🍸

Tips

  • Brush the sponge layers lightly with a mix of elderflower syrup and Prosecco before assembling for extra flavor.
  • Keep the cake refrigerated until serving — it’s best enjoyed cold.
  • Add thin lime slices or edible flowers for an extra decorative touch.
