My very own Schuss cake recipe

The Schuss cake is one of the crown jewels of a famous French cooking school: Lenôtre. I took several recipes we can find on the Internet and I built my very own recipe with fresh raspberries and organic vanilla beans from Madagascar. Its unique taste will surprise your senses.
