Flatten the dough into the pan. Divide the apricot and red berries over the dough and sprinkle with 3 tablespoons sugar. Bake in a preheated oven at 175°C (fan oven 150°C) about 35 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven and increase the temperature to 250°C (fan oven 225°C).
Beat 5 egg whites with lemon juice and remaining sugar until meringue. Fill the piping bag with a large nozzle with meringue and spray ca.24 tufts on the cake. Turn the cake right in the oven and bake for another 5 minutes until meringue is golden brown.
