    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a saucepan over low heat, melt the granulated sugar until it turns into a golden-brown caramel. Add the butter and stir until smooth.

    2

    Slowly pour in the heavy cream to the caramel, stirring constantly. Let it cool to room temperature.

    3

    Soak the gelatin in the water, then heat over low heat until completely dissolved. Add it to the caramel cream and mix thoroughly.

    4

    Place the sponge cake base in a cake pan and pour the caramel cream over it. Spread the top evenly.

    5

    In a clean bowl, whip the egg whites with the powdered sugar until stiff, glossy peaks form.

    6

    Spoon the meringue onto the set caramel layer. Using a kitchen torch, carefully caramelize the surface of the meringue.

    7

    Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours to allow all layers to set completely. Serve chilled!
