Erva’s Very Berry Raspberry Cake
Best, moist vanilla pudding and mixed berries raspberry cake. A dessert that brings the feel of summer wherever you are.
VANILLA PUDDING RASPBERRY CAKE TAKES CENTER STAGE
I love
raspberries.
They’re mild
but memorable. Perfect for sweet treats. Even more perfect fresh.
Here they
take center stage in a several layers deep raspberry cake.
Bottom layer
is a classic biscuit finished and baked in fifteen-ish minutes. Then comes a
layer made from variety of berries topped with a thicker instant vanilla
pudding. Raspberries crown the dessert, and are congealed together with gelatin
powder for a flawless pastry shop look.
Gelled
raspberry topping really does make a stunning looking cake. Additionally, as
the ingredients that make up remaining layers provide a light and airy, taste
reminiscent of summer, this is a cake you can eat three big pieces and escape
heavy feeling after most desserts.
So,
neighborhood, how did we do?
