How to Make Raspberry Chocolate Cake

Kakao! ∴∵ゞ(´ω`*) ♪ Today I’m making a rich raspberry chocolate cake. It’s sweet yet elegant, with a taste so rich and tart. The best season for raspberry is June to August. Coming up soon! ※For this video, I reduced the volume when I used the hand-blender. Please be aware of the noise if you use one. Thank you for translating the subtitles and video descriptions.

It’s not an absolute necessity, but you could probably substitute it for starch syrup and get similar results.

Combine water and whipping cream in a pan and heat 2. Measure and add cocoa powder and granulated sugar in the same bowl and whisk. 3. When the 1 is boiled, add 2 and heat again. 4.

Spread imbibage on the 1st layer, and add ganache on top. 3. Layer a sheet of sponge on top, and spread imbibage on the 2nd sheet, and add raspberry jam on top. 4. Layer the 3rd sheet on top, spread imbibage, and give it a thin coat of ganache. 5. Cool the cake in the fridge until the ganache solidifies. 6. When the ganache solidifies, hand blend the glaçage to eliminate bubbles and make sure it's around 25-28℃, and pour it on top. 7. By adding a layer of ganache on top, this prevents the glaçage from getting absorbed by the sponge. 8. If the glaçage has solidified, you can cut it and decorate with the berries.
