The base of the cake is the flan, next one is custard and the top is sponge. I made it many times but still wonder why my sponge is quite thin, finally I found the answer in one of Japanese magazine. The key is the mixing method! You don't need to mix the meringue until fully combine, a trace of the meringue is fine and it will be the sponge part. Because this cake is a cheesecake (we use cream cheese as a base), so the cake will be heavier than original Gâteau magique ^^. I don't want my cake to be too sweet, so I use only 70g of sugar (for the base part) but you can add 10-15g if you want more sweetness in your life.
Serve with a cup of coffee is the best for me but you can serve it with some fruit (berry family is great choice) to make it more delicious.
