This cake seams to be really good. I will prepare it tomorrow for my husband’s 72nd birthday. Thank you, Stephan!👍
Oh, wow! Let me have a piece of this with my rose petal tea. Thanks for this, Chef ❤
I have a bit of an almond obsession... and wondered if I could make this with an almond pastry cream. First thing that came up was your almond pastry cream recipe! This goes on my 'must make' list!!!

bruno albouze does a version with cherry jam and almond creme pat. looks very nice.
I made this cake for my friend's birthday and they loved it! Didn't have a cake ring, but it worked just fine with my springform pan. Thank you for the great recipe!
Looks wonderful!!!!
Oh that looks WONDERFUL. Definitely will try and YES on the bit of rum in the filling. Thank you so much, Stéphane.
I baked this cake last weekend and came out perfectly! That gives me confidence to try another recipe.
That looks delicious!
Love your videos and the research that goes into it! 💜💚
I made it same day as you uploaded the video. It turned out great. Thanks a lot 👍

Thank you! The excess dough you throw away or is for something usable?
I've come to basque in all your glory.
Hi Stephane, Do you use salted or unsalted butter in this recipe?
magnifique..........magnifique.......thank you , for sharing..........😋😋😋😋😋😋...............

Is this the predecessor of the Tarte Tropeziénne from St Tropez? Very well done demo 👍
Can I use an 8 inches springform pan?
I want to know where the rest of these cakes go when you are done filming? The crew must be very well fed.
for the butter is it unsalted butter or regular butter?
Can you make a few cookies with the extra dough?
Did you use all-purpose flour or cake flour?
Where can I get the recipe
Pas simple, ce gâteau mais j’aimerais bien le déguster.😊

I made this yesterday and put poached cherries in the base, assembly was a bit different,........but delicious all the same.
Don't you have to temper the eggs with a little bit of hot milk first?
I only watch these videos for the eating noises. 🤣
I bet my Great Pyrenees will like to eat this with me 😋
I see you sift the flour & sugar but not the baking powder. I always sift both together. My granny always taught me that to bring pastry together always use a steel knife.
Can I just say finding a tart ring roughly 18cm by 4.5 cm is mentally difficult for the task at hand? I recommend doing double the recipe and getting 20 cm tart rings and keeping the leftover pastry. Damn, I spent 50 minutes of intense searching to find a Matfer 17.5 by 4.5 ring! I'm not even joking. The company is third-party and owned by a stationary company that ships boxes and is situated in Nice. Like damn it will be worth it though haha.
Please let us know what we have to do to convert this to a Boston Crème pie. It seems similar, missing the chocolate ganache top
if you just started the video and are wondering if it tastes good. 19:22
You have beautiful hands, mon ami.
3rd try??! 🥳🎉😆
Stephane get yourself a non-stick rolling pin and a pastry mate and you won’t need flour to roll out your dough
So you could make a Pavlova two weeks later.
Suggestions for the 8 egg whites? I don’t like to waste anything…

Cheese-and-mashed-potatoes-leftovers soufflé, nougat, île flottante, backed Alaska, macaroons... Beat the whites to soft peaks, gently fold in ground walnut and a touch of sugar : portion with a table spoon onto a cooking sheet, you have nice and easy macaroons. Walnut can be substituted by any nut, the egg whites needn't be beaten, in the older recipes, they weren't...

hate to see what the hard way is...
well theres a lot missing on it
La pate, c'est 3 jaunes et un blanc d'oeuf. Vous vous compliquez inutilement le montage. Je n'ai jamais vu faire aussi compliqué pour rien... Les stries, c'est usuellement en losange. 3 ou 4 dans un sens, et 2 ou 3 dans l'autre. C'est trés épais pour un gateau Basque. 3 couches d'un centimetre, c'est ideal. AGUR
Does look SO good - don't s'pose we have an egg-free variant?

It looked alot better before it went into the oven
