In the meantime, beat the sugar and eggs. Stir in the butter. Add the quark, vanilla pudding powder and lemon zest.

Preheat the oven to 170 degrees top/bottom heat.

Pour 1/3 of the quark mixture onto the cooled base and place a few drained mandarins on top. Spread the remaining quark mixture over it and place the remaining mandarins in a circle.

Bake the cheesecake for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Turn off the oven, open the door a crack and let it sit in the oven for another 30 minutes. Then take it out and cool it completely at room temperature.
