Frequently asked questions:
1. Can I use a different type of cheese instead of mascarpone?
Yes, you can use cottage cheese or cream cheese, but make sure it is well drained to prevent the cake from becoming too soggy.

This is a natural process, especially with flourless cakes. If it sinks, it will still be nice and fluffy inside.

The cake tastes best fresh, but it can be frozen for a short time. Make sure to wrap it well to prevent it from absorbing freezer odors.
