Method

  1. Creme Cake Base

    Add all ingredients to a mixing bowl fitted with a beater. Mix for 1 minute on slow speed and then a further 3 minutes on medium speed.

  2. Creme Cake Base

    Deposit 400 g of the batter into a greased 8" sponge pan.

  3. Creme Cake Base

    Bake in a deck oven at 180°C for 30-40 minutes.

  4. Creme Cake Base

    Allow to cool thoroughly.

  5. Fruit Filling

    Dissolve the Sanatine powder in the hot water, then add the Delifruit and mix in thoroughly.

  6. Fruit Filling

    Take one of the cooled 8" sponges and trim the top to level it. Cut it so that it fits into the 8" silicone mold 1/3 up the sides.

  7. Fruit Filling

    Pour on the prepared Fruits of the Forest filling and spread evenly to fill another 1/3 up the sides.

  8. Fruit Filling

    Place into the freezer for at least 2 hours.

  9. Fond / Mousse

    Add the Neutral Fond to the warm water and mix until dissolved. Add the compounds and mix in thoroughly.

  10. Fond / Mousse

    Fold in the lightly whipped cream.

  11. Assemble: Take the prepared sponge and fruit layer from the freezer and remove them from the molds.

  12. Assemble: Place them into the centre of the 10" silicone molds, making sure there is an even gap all around the sides.

  13. Assemble: Place the freshly prepared Fond/Mousse into a piping bag and pipe around the edges of the sponge and fruit layer, making sure no gaps remain.

  14. Assemble: Pipe the rest on to the top and spread evenly with the side of a palette knife or any straight edge.

  15. Assemble: Place into the freezer for at least 8 hours (until solid).

  16. Finish: Take from the freezer and remove from the silicone mold, then place onto a cake board.

  17. Finish: Spread a thin layer of Decorgel Neutral on the surface and then decorate with fresh fruits.
