Strawberry and mulberry cake. You will need some egg yolks, whip it and add some sweet sour cream, some rose water and crushed almonds, add some milk when boiling it, stir it while boiling. Then make the bottom part of the cake, put the stuffing into it, add the strawberries, add lots of sugar. Before adding the strawberries, wash them in rose water. Bake it carefully, it doesn't need a lot of time; if you're cooking it in a sheet, bake it in a furnace. You can use rice like I mentioned for the stuffing.
