For this light and beautiful cake, you can take any berries: currants, lingonberries, blueberries; If you use frozen berries, you need to give them to knowy and drain juice.

The amount of sugar is better to regulate: if you have a sweet strawberry, reduce its quantity, and if very acidic lingonberry - increase.
The sand cake dough is preparing easy, but if you do not want to mess with the dough, take ready, it is sold in any supermarket.
In a deep bowl, we divide one egg and one yolk. Add half a glass of sugar and 1 t. A spoonful of lemon zest, we all stir. Then rub the margarine there. To make it easier, margarine is better to pre-hold at room temperature so that it becomes soft, but do not heated it so that it does not become liquid. We all wash well, gradually add flour, we knead the tight dough with your hands. We put in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes. The shape for the cake is lubricated with oil, you can stripped the bottom of the parchment (special baking paper), then you will be much easier to remove it.
The dough, which settled in the refrigerator, is removed and folded into the form. Gently with your fingers distribute the dough across the form, making sides. It is necessary to put it in the resulting form of berries and jelly. Forkoking the dough in several places so that it does not rise in the baking process. We bake in a predetermined oven for 30 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees and let it cool.
We are preparing jelly, the easiest to buy special packages "Jelly for cake", instead of ½ part of the water, add the juice to the contents of the package, allocated from the berries, then we act according to the instructions, put on a cooled berry pie and pour jelly to the cooled pie. It can be checked very quickly. When the cake cools, decorate coconut petals (or almond, if you do not like coconuts).
