Last, and certainly not least, we could always rely on my husband&#8217;s aunt and uncle to arrive for the holidays with a festive schaum torte for dessert.<\/p>\n<p>Before meeting my husband, I had never heard of schaum torte. This ethereal whipped cream- and berry-topped dessert is similar to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/two-berry-pavlova\/?srsltid=AfmBOoqpEtietwP5Ha7kN6eo8oPVVsA6DaQ76SyaJbfBV4pLtbMEkIqx\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/two-berry-pavlova\/?srsltid=AfmBOoqpEtietwP5Ha7kN6eo8oPVVsA6DaQ76SyaJbfBV4pLtbMEkIqx\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pavlova<\/a>, with meringue that&#8217;s light and crisp on the outside and soft and marshmallowy on the inside. The schaum torte has German and Austrian origins and is especially popular in Wisconsin, where many German immigrants settled in the 19th century.<\/p>\n<p>Today, you&#8217;ll find schaum torte for dessert at supper clubs throughout the state. You&#8217;ll also see it served at summer festivals during the height of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-pick-strawberries\/?srsltid=AfmBOopXfbhE7DQqn7cCouD-0h-WLtRn8V20-d9jG5k0oOb50rOyVJ-a\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-pick-strawberries\/?srsltid=AfmBOopXfbhE7DQqn7cCouD-0h-WLtRn8V20-d9jG5k0oOb50rOyVJ-a\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">strawberry season<\/a>. But if you&#8217;re like my husband&#8217;s family, you&#8217;ll find that, no matter the season, any occasion is the right occasion for schaum torte.<\/p>\n<h2>What&#8217;s the difference between a schaum torte and pavlova?<\/h2>\n<p>Schaum torte and pavlova are very similar in composition, taste and appearance. Aside from their origins, the main difference is the traditional toppings used to decorate them. Schaum tortes are almost always topped with strawberries and whipped cream. Pavlova, which originated in Australia or New Zealand but is also popular in Great Britain, is commonly garnished with passion fruit, kiwi, banana and berries. Just about any combo of fruit and cream (and sometimes curd!) works well with either.<\/p>\n<p>Another distinction: Many pavlova recipes (e.g., this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/christmas-pavlova\/?srsltid=AfmBOopZiM-KKJIrcTPIdNFiSce1HYyUEVwCKghKCXMg6p2Y59uAs0JZ\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/christmas-pavlova\/?srsltid=AfmBOopZiM-KKJIrcTPIdNFiSce1HYyUEVwCKghKCXMg6p2Y59uAs0JZ\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Christmas pavlova<\/a>) include cornstarch to help stabilize the egg whites and keep the center extra fluffy and marshmallow-like, while schaum torte doesn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<h2>Schaum Torte Ingredients<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Egg whites:<\/strong> Egg whites are a key ingredient in schaum torte. They are responsible for its lighter-than-air texture and consistency. Like most baking recipes, you&#8217;ll want to use room-temperature eggs. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/what-to-do-with-egg-yolks\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/what-to-do-with-egg-yolks\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Save the egg yolks<\/a> for your favorite curds, custards or ice cream.<\/li>\n<li><strong>White vinegar:<\/strong> Vinegar stabilizes the egg whites, making a firmer meringue that&#8217;s less likely to collapse.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vanilla extract:<\/strong> A dash of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-vanilla-extract\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-vanilla-extract\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">vanilla extract<\/a> enhances the meringue with its sweet, delicate flavor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Salt:<\/strong> Salt&#8217;s primary function in schaum torte is to enhance the flavor of the meringue by balancing its sweetness. However, it also stabilizes the torte by breaking down the protein strands in the egg whites.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar:<\/strong> Sugar sweetens the schaum torte and acts as a stabilizer. It bonds with the water in the meringue, giving it structure and strength.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Strawberries:<\/strong> Fresh strawberries are Wisconsin&#8217;s most traditional and popular topping for schaum torte. If desired, toss the berries with 1 to 2 teaspoons of sugar to draw out their juices and make a simple strawberry sauce. Drizzle it over the schaum torte and whipped cream upon serving.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Whipped cream:<\/strong> A fluffy cloud of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/sweetened-whipped-cream\/?srsltid=AfmBOopC-SbX7V6AUIlFOQyBLuwbOlYjusZaIDib_4xiA-NfHSwVa0x3\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/sweetened-whipped-cream\/?srsltid=AfmBOopC-SbX7V6AUIlFOQyBLuwbOlYjusZaIDib_4xiA-NfHSwVa0x3\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">homemade whipped cream<\/a> is the perfect complement to the crisp outside shell of the schaum torte.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Prepare the egg whites<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2117906 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Schaum-Torte_TOHD25_16331_JonathanMelendez_01.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Egg whites in a large bowl with strawberries and milk on side\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">JONATHAN MELENDEZ FOR TASTE OF HOME<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Place the egg whites in a large bowl and let them stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Once it's fully baked, turn off the oven and let the torte cool slowly with the door ajar. You'll want to leave it in the oven to cool for at least two hours, but you can even leave it there overnight.","image":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Schaum-Torte_TOHD25_16331_JonathanMelendez_04.jpg?fit=700,1024"},{"@type":"HowToStep","name":"Decorate and serve","text":"Top the schaum torte with dollops of whipped cream and fresh sliced strawberries.","image":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Schaum-Torte_TOHD25_16331_JonathanMelendez_06.jpg?fit=700,1024"}],"recipeYield":"12 servings","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Lauren Habermehl"}],"nutrition":{"@type":"NutritionInformation","calories":" 206 calories","fatContent":"6g fat (3g saturated fat)","cholesterolContent":"20mg cholesterol","sodiumContent":"92mg sodium","carbohydrateContent":"37g carbohydrate (36g sugars","fiberContent":"1g fiber)","proteinContent":"3g protein.
