Yogurt cake with cherries - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use frozen cherries for this cake?

Yes, you can use frozen cherries. Make sure to thaw them completely and drain any excess juice before using them in the recipe, especially for the jelly layer, to prevent it from becoming too watery. Pat them dry before adding to the yogurt filling.

How long does this yogurt cake last in the refrigerator?

The yogurt cake will typically last for 3-4 days in the refrigerator, stored in an airtight container. The yogurt filling and jelly are best when fresh.

Can I make this cake gluten-free?

Yes, you can substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Ensure the blend contains xanthan gum or a similar binding agent for better texture. Also, check that your chosen flour substitutes 1:1 with all-purpose flour or adjust the recipe slightly as needed.

What can I use instead of gelatin?

For a vegetarian alternative to gelatin, you can try using agar-agar. Follow the package instructions for the correct ratio of agar-agar to liquid. Keep in mind that agar-agar sets more firmly than gelatin.

Can I freeze this yogurt cake?

Freezing this cake is not recommended due to the high moisture content of the yogurt and jelly layers, which can change texture upon thawing. The cake base itself can be frozen separately.

What can I serve with this yogurt cake?

This cake is delicious on its own, but you can enhance the experience with a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of extra almond flakes, or a drizzle of honey.

Can I use a different type of fruit?

Absolutely! You can substitute cherries with other berries like raspberries, strawberries, or blueberries. Adjust the amount of sugar in the jelly according to the sweetness of the fruit you choose.
