Recipe
Cook It cannot wait to share with you a recipe for a beautifully elegant dessert with a rich taste palette. The multi-layer Berry Fantasy cake will immediately capture everyone’s attention with its appearance, yet at the same time, even an aspiring pastry chef will easily be able to prepare it.
Fluffy sponges with a grainy texture, the most delicate yolk cream that resembles a souffle, a berry flavor explosion — you will be thrilled!
Use a 9-inch baking tin for the preparation of the Berry Fantasy cake. If you want, you can replace poppy seeds in the dough with crushed walnuts or raisins. Moreover, you can use any other frozen or canned berries to make the berry layer. If you are using the latter, we recommend reducing the amount of sugar.

Assemble the CakePlace the first layer of the sponge cake on the bottom of a detachable baking tin, spread it with yolk cream, pour the cherry jelly mass on top, and cover with the second layer of the sponge cake. Pop the cake in the fridge overnight. Remove the cake from the tin and coat it with buttercream. Decorate with berries and rosemary. |
For coating the cake, you can use any other coating instead of buttercream. A chocolate fudge would be perfect. Enjoy your dessert!
