Method
All products must be at room temperature. Separate the egg yolks from the whites. Sift the flour with the baking powder and salt. Softened butter with the sugar mix of fluffy cream. Add egg yolks, one by one. After absorbed completely from the mixture, gradually add the juice and zest and orange, vanilla and yogurt. Stir the mixture to become homogeneous. Add the sifted flour. Mix with a spatula or spoon. Finally, with mild agitation add the beaten egg whites to stiff. On the finished cake bases are cut desired shapes. I used 3 types - asterisk and 2 like Christmas trees. Just wanted to see what happens. In the rectangular cake size 35h10.5h6 cm put baking paper. Pour about half of cake mixes and arrange cut shapes. Must be close to each other. Cover with the rest of the cake mixes. Be smoothed. Cake bake in preheated oven at 170-180C. Check for readiness with wooden skewer. Baked cake is placed on a wire rack to cool, then remove from carefully cake shaped and decorated optional - sprinkle with powdered sugar or pour glaze. * 1 cup = 200 ml * In several places I see a similar cake. I like the idea much. And especially the ability to improvise - the dough for the cake is of your choice; figures - star, tree, fruit, heart for Valentine's Day, various geometric shapes, etc .; Color of dough for the cake and figures - white, brown, green, and others. This cake is not just for Christmas and New Year, and can be prepared in various occasion to.

Ina, ideyatya cake I liked! Changed little cake batter (without lemon and orange). I added cocoa flavor rum and chocolate pieces. Used for decoration lemon cake with dried fruit (ready). I could not cut into shapes (for dried fruit are not well-formed), so I made squares :) cake is very interesting, will certainly do it again :)
Bravo, Reni! Great idea! I like those new conceptual! And as I wrote in the recipe - cake batter is optional. Everyone has tried, favorite dough :)
Girls are super with these easy ideas. Will take and I in the near future. Marvelous are your cakes :)

I used ready cocoa cake and put it in circles banana to get Tiger eyes, but the cake was very friable and bottom of eyes break :) and as for basic cake made Zebra Cake.
Bravo, Willie! Very nice idea for *Tiger Eyes*!
I followed his promise-did it again :) And this time not cut shapes of the finished cake (I have no excuse except that very quickly) :) Very interesting Ina cake!
Reni, glad of your new idea! Again surprising cake :)
Very nice idea, but I do not understand why three times and the figures do I go above and rearranged. Lost is any effect. But no taste remarks-eating and ask for more :)
Mariana, I do not understand what could be the reason :) Taking pour half of the mixture, figures close to each other are placed naturally be pushed down to sink into this mixture and then pour the rest half. I hope you have no more problem :)
Ina, chestichko do it (and it shows) :) and each time is different. This time I made just basic dough recipe and we like. Instead ready base cake used cake that looked beautifully marbled Packaging (only there, however). At least it was tasty :)
