A fresh and delectable summer cake layered with Joconde sponge and yogurt mixture that has been lightened up with whipped cream and elegantly finished with fresh strawberries and pistachios as topping. It’s perfect for people who enjoy creamy and light desserts.

- Soak the gelatine in a small bowl of cold water until softened. Spread half of the strawberry jam on one piece of sponge cake and place it onto the bottom of a 9-inch square springform pan.
- Beat together the yogurt, vanilla sugar and sugar in a bowl until well-blended. Gently squeeze the softened gelatine to remove the excess water and place the gelatine in a saucepan. Over a very gentle heat, allow the gelatine to melt slowly, stirring once or twice. Once it has melted, stir about 3 tablespoons of yogurt cream into the melted gelatin, then pour it back to the rest of yogurt mixture. Stir until smooth and blended.
- Whip the cream until firm and fold into the yogurt mixture. Pour 2/3 yogurt mixture onto the sponge. Top with second sponge cake, then spread with the rest of strawberry jam.
- Attach a pastry bag with a star tip and fill in the rest of yogurt cream. Pipe the cream on the top of cake. Chill the cake for at least 2 hours until set. Decorate with chopped pistachios and fresh strawberries. Slice and serve.

@Megan It's simply an almond sponge. But you can use other types of foam cakes too.
Superb... I love it :D
Woooooooow stunning gorgeous!
What a decadent cake. That would be perfect with a cup of tea.
Have a happy week.

I LOVE Schnitten with yogurt and fruit fillings! Yours look spectacular, Angie. I'd love a piece (or two) for afternoon coffee. :-))
I don't know what joconde sponge is but this cake looks gorgeous! I wish I could get desserts that look this good in most restaurants.
Pistachios add a brilliant touch! Lovely cake!
Just gorgeous! What a perfect summer cake.

What a lovely cake, Angie! It looks so light and refreshing!
What a beautiful cake, Angie, and so perfect for a hot, late summer dessert. It looks so light and airy and perfectly topped with strawberries and pistachios.
I can totally do creamy and light. This yogurt cake looks spectacular!
A delightful treat! The topping with strawberries and pistachios sounds excellent!
What beautiful photos!!!
Absolutely beautiful!
Angie, are you a caterer? EVERYTHING here always looks professional, beautiful, difficult and delicious! Seriously...this cake is spectacular.
That cake looks divine! Great presentation, too. Love the idea of whole strawberries, rather than sliced, on top.
That looks totally delicious and sounds like an upmarket trifle - how lovely. What exactly is a Joconde sponge, is it similar to a Genoise or trifle sponge?
BEAUTIFUL! :)
The yogurt cake looks so fancy and delicious. That glass bottle prop you used .. LOVE it! :)
Brilliant combination of tastes, beautifully presented. Like some of the other commenters, I am not familiar with Joconde sponge cake---likely it is not available in the States? Perhaps it is like a genoise?
Soft spongy cake, anytime for me, please. This looks gorgeous too!
These cakes are very beautiful! The strawberries and cream combination is fantastic!
Ooooo...lovely lovely lovely! My mouth is watering. Aren't they gorgeous! Errr... how I wish I can have a slice or two right now. :o)
Hope you're having a fabulous day, Shuling.

Angie-Such an elegant and light summer cake. Love the filling, and the whipped cream topping with the pretty strawberries. You have the first choice, to get all those amazing German recipes to chose from...so great!
Thanks for your kind concern, and caring. You're a wonderful friend for recommending acupuncture. Problem is, I'm scared of needles! (such a baby!)
My chiropractor/physical therapist really tortured my arm to exercise it, and massage. Plenty of rest also helped, so now I'm finally able to use the arm much better!
Hugs,
Everything about this cake is stunning! Love it!
Strawberry Yogurt Cake?? I'm in heaven!! Miriam@Meatless Meals For Meat Eaters
I love every single component of this cake, from the joconde with jam, to the yogurt cream, to the beautiful strawberry topping! Plus, very easy on the eyes - gorgeous presentation and photos!
Whip cream Angie, this is good for sure. I love that little vase you have too, I just got something similar. I will have to try some berries in it like you did. Wish I had a piece right now. Hope you have a great week.

this cake look so tempting!
That looks amazing, your blog is inspirational and the food is exceptional, huge fan already!
Feel like having a slice..yumm!
I have seen so many strawberry cakes with the whipped cream or butter cream filling (or worse, a mixture of both) that reading "yogurt" is a real pleasure. Combining yogurt with whipped cream must give wonderful results. At least it looks divine!
This is such a pretty, elegant dessert!
I love this cake for the strawberry lovers in my family! I like the way you've topped it with pistachio nuts and whole berries- a stunning presentation;-)
wow the whole setup looks stunning, vibrant colours!! wouldn't mind for both of those slices!
That is truly a sight for sore eyes. You could serve this at the Four Seasons Angie :)
Lovely lovely flavors.
chow :) Devaki @ weavethousandflavors
Beautiful looking cake!!!Love strawberries.

I love yogurt cakes - but this sponge cake stuffed with yogurt and strawberries puts the traditional American strawberry shortcake to shame. It couldn't be prettier - or more welcoming.
That is one spectacular cake Angie! Your pictures are gorgeous!
Excellent cake dear Angie, looks absolutely amazing, I love your post is great, hugs.
