Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare two 9-inch round cake pans by greasing them with vegetable oil and lining with parchment paper.
- In a clean bowl, whip egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add granulated sugar until stiff peaks develop, about 4-5 minutes.
- Whisk together egg yolks, remaining sugar, and vegetable oil in another bowl until combined and slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
- Sift all-purpose flour into the egg yolk mixture and fold gently to create a smooth batter.
- Fold the whipped egg whites into the batter in three additions, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes.
- Cool the cakes in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
- Prepare mango syrup by combining chopped mango with water in a saucepan and heating until broken down into syrup, about 10 minutes.
- Whip heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
- Layer the cake starting with one layer on a serving plate, brushing with mango syrup, followed by whipped cream and mango pulp. Repeat with the second layer.
- Frost the top and sides of the assembled cake with remaining whipped cream and decorate with fresh sliced mangoes.
