How to make White Chocolate Raspberry Mousse Cake

The recipe involves preparing several components, including raspberry sauce, white chocolate almond crunch, white chocolate mousse, raspberry mousse, and sweetened whipped cream. Each step is easy to prepare and takes only a few minutes.

Prepare the raspberry sauce

First, prepare the raspberry puree by combining fresh or frozen raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil and then simmer until it thickens. Strain to remove the seeds and let it cool completely.

Prepare the raspberry moist cake layers

The cake batter is very easy and quick to prepare, you just need a whisk and a bowl, and simply add ingredients one at a time. First, whisk together eggs, sugar, and oil in a mixing bowl. Add vanilla extract, salt, and six tablespoons of raspberry sauce. In the end, add the flour and mix it together. Divide the batter evenly between two 8-inch (20cm) pans that have been greased and lined with parchment paper. Bake the cakes in a preheated oven at 320°F (160°C) for 13-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes to cool completely.

Prepare the almond white chocolate crunchy layer

For this, simply melt the white chocolate with oil over a bain-marie. Add the almond flakes and stir to combine. Place the first cake layer on a serving platter, and add a cake ring around it. Line the ring with an acetate sheet. Spread the white chocolate almond mixtureon top of the cake. Refrigerate or freeze for a few minutes to set.

Prepare the white chocolate mousse

Prepare the mousse by melting white chocolate and whipping cream over a bain-marie. Let it cool slightly to room temperature. Soak the gelatin powder in cold water for 5-10 minutes and then dissolve it over low heat.  Pour over the chocolate mixture and mix to combine. Whip the chilled cream until soft peaks form, and add the white chocolate mixture. Pour the white chocolate mousse over the cake and almond crunchy layer, spread evenly, and smooth the top. Freeze for 20-30 minutes to be able to create even layers. 

Prepare the raspberry mousse

Prepare the raspberry mousse by dissolving gelatin in cold water and letting it swell for about 5-10 minutes. Place the gelatin over low heat until it dissolves, and pour it over the remaining raspberry sauce. Whip the chilled cream until soft peaks form, add the raspberry mixture, and mix to combine.

Assemble the white chocolate and raspberry mousse cake

To assemble the cake, cut the second layer of cake with a 7-inch (18 cm) cake ring and place it on top of the white chocolate mousse. Cover the cake with raspberry mousse and smooth on top. Refrigerate the cake for 4-6 hours or overnight to set it completely.

Decorate with sweetened whipped cream

Finally, prepare the sweetened whipped cream by whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Transfer the cream into a piping bag fitted with a 6B tip and pipe it onto the top of the cake in any design desired. 

Decorate with fresh raspberry halves and sprinkle freeze-dried raspberries over the top of the cake to finish. Once complete, the cake is ready to be served and enjoyed.
