Wanting to make a continental cake for boys birthday. Anyone have experience making one? I am a chef so a reasonably med to high level of difficulty is fine. Just some hints and tips possible a recipe?
Cheers

I can't say I know what a continental cake is? And google isn't helping.
Or do you mean continental cheese cake?
It's an Italian sponge cake with custard filling. It's called zuppa inglese in Italian.
ahhhh now I know what you mean, but no I've never made one.
Very yummy!
Taste has a recipe for a Tia Maria version which of course you could always leave out.
ETA: if you have an iPhone or iPad, the epicurious app has the recipes for the pastry cream but not for the cake. I also found one on big oven but it won't let me copy and paste unfortunately.
