  • To prepare the base, whisk the separated egg yolks in a big bowl in powdered sugar till it turns creamy and pale. Add the vanilla extract too. In another large bowl, whip the heavy cream until it reaches a soft peak.
  • To form the cream, in a large bowl, whip the egg whites till a gentle soft peak is formed. Be careful and mix the whipped egg yolks into it making sure you don’t deflate the air.
  • Time to assemble the cake! Cover a loaf pan with a plastic wrap. Keep the ladyfinger biscuits at the bottom of the pan, now pour the semifreddo mixture as the first layer, followed by the cherry compote. Follow the steps again. For the crunch, you can add the almond crunch.
  • Cover and freeze for around 6 hours or overnight. Before serving let it sit for around 5 minutes after taking it out from the refrigerator and then slice it. Pour some cherry syrup and fresh cherries for the aesthetic look and feel and voila your Cherry Semifreddo cake is ready!
