Wash and halve the strawberries.
To make the sponge, whisk the eggs and sugar at maximum speed until very pale

Remove the bowl and the whisk. Fold in the flour by hand using a large metal spoon -
do this carefully to keep the sponge light.

when lightly touched.
Turn out onto a wire rack.
Whisk the cream at maximum speed until stiff. Add sugar to taste.
Roughly chop the apricots and a third of the strawberries. Fold them into half the
