This was sooo pretty the first time I did it, but sooo time consuming. I rounded off some corners, but yeah. Still time consuming. Here’s what they looked like after my first attempt…
Now….
And before I cut them…
I used a cake mix on this one with a layer of premade pie crust in there just for texture. Then make the basic mirror glaze for the top, cut it, and your done. In the first one , you made a gelee, a cream cheese pastry cream, and of course the cake, and finally… the mirror glaze. Well .. a cake mix, a good quality raspberry preserve, and a cream cheese ganache all helped to cut the time and effort, but I think the wow factor is still there! A little hard to pack in terms of sharing….but pretty, and tasty .
