Raspberry White Cake image

In this classic layer cake, egg whites serve as a leaven; they also give the mountainous frosting all its loft. Cake flour keeps this fruity dessert light and airy, and fresh raspberries are folded into the batter for a pop of color and juicy, tart flavor.

BEST CLASSIC WHITE LAYER CAKE WITH RASPBERRY-ALMOND FILLING



Best Classic White Layer Cake With Raspberry-Almond Filling image

A beautiful soft, fine-grained vanilla birthday cake with luscious butter frosting and raspberry jam filling from the amazing folks at America's Test Kitchen. Lemon curd works really well too. You can omit the almonds for a nut-free cake. To quickly bring the milk and egg white mixture to room temperature, set the bottom of the measuring glass in hot water and stir until it feels cool rather than cold, around 65 F. MAKE AHEAD: Cake layers can be wrapped and stored for a day; frosting can be covered with plastic wrap and set aside at room temperature for several hours. Once assembled, the cake should be covered with an inverted bowl or cake cover and refrigerated. Under its coat of frosting, it will remain fresh for up to three days. Bring it to room temperature before serving. There is enough frosting to pipe a border around the base and top of the cake. If you want to decorate the cake more elaborately, you should make one and a half times the frosting recipe. If desired, finish the sides of the cake with 1 cup of sliced almonds (lightly toasted works well). Recipe is from Cook's Illustrated/Baking Illustrated.

Time 1h3m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

nonstick cooking spray
2 1/4 cups cake flour, plus more for dusting the pans (9 ounces)
1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
6 large egg whites, at room temperature (3/4 cup)
2 teaspoons almond extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar (12 1/4 ounces)
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon table salt
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened but still cool (1 1/2 sticks)
16 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened but still cool (2 sticks)
4 cups confectioners' sugar (1 pound)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon whole milk
1 pinch table salt
1/2 cup blanched slivered almond, toasted and chopped coarse (2 1/2 ounces)
1/3 cup raspberry jam (seedless) or 1/3 cup lemon curd

Steps:

  • For the Cake: Set oven rack in middle position. (If oven is too small to cook both layers on a single rack, set racks in upper-middle and lower-middle positions.) Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray two 9-inch round cake pans with nonstick cooking spray; line the bottoms with parchment or waxed paper rounds. Spray the paper rounds, dust the pans with flour, and invert pans and rap sharply to remove excess flour.
  • Pour milk, egg whites, and extracts into 2-cup glass measure, and mix with fork until blended.
  • Mix cake flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in bowl of electric mixer at slow speed. Add butter; continue beating at slow speed until mixture resembles moist crumbs, with no powdery streaks remaining.
  • Add all but 1/2 cup of milk mixture to crumbs and beat at medium speed (or high speed if using handheld mixer) for 1 1/2 minutes. Add remaining 1/2 cup of milk mixture and beat 30 seconds more. Stop mixer and scrape sides of bowl. Return mixer to medium (or high) speed and beat 20 seconds longer.
  • Divide batter evenly between two prepared cake pans; using rubber spatula, spread batter to pan walls and smooth tops. Arrange pans at least 3 inches from the oven walls and 3 inches apart. (If oven is small, place pans on separate racks in staggered fashion to allow for air circulation.) Bake until thin skewer or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 23 to 25 minutes.
  • Let cakes rest in pans for 3 minutes. Loosen from sides of pans with a knife, if necessary, and invert onto wire racks. Reinvert onto additional wire racks. Let cool completely, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • For the Frosting: Beat butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla, milk, and salt in bowl of electric mixer at slow speed until sugar is moistened. Increase speed to medium-high (high if using handheld mixer); beat, stopping twice to scrape down bowl, until creamy and fluffy, about 1 1/2 minutes. Avoid overbeating, or frosting will be too soft to pipe.
  • For the Filling: Before assembling cake, set aside 3/4 cup of the frosting for decoration. Spread small dab of frosting in center of cake plate to anchor cake, and set down one cake layer. Combine 1/2 cup of remaining frosting with almonds in small bowl and spread over first layer. Carefully spread jam on top, then cover with second cake layer. Spread frosting over top and sides of assembled cake. Pipe reserved frosting around perimeter of cake at the base and the top. Cut the cake into slices and serve.

RASPBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE

Categories     Cake     Blender     Food Processor     Mixer     Berry     Chocolate     Dessert     Bake     Freeze/Chill     Easter     Raspberry     Chill     Boil     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 29

For the white chocolate mousse
4 large egg yolks
1/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 1/2 cups milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
9 ounces fine-quality white chocolate, chopped
1 cup heavy cream
white chocolate génoise, cut horizontally with a serrated knife into 3 layers
For the white chocolate génoise
3 ounces fine-quality white chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into bits
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup cake flour (not self-rising)
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs at room temperature
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup framboise for brushing the cake layer
For the raspberry mousse
two 10-ounce packages frozen raspberries in light syrup, thawed and drained, reserving 1/3 cup of the syrup
1 envelope of unflavored gelatin
3 tablespoons framboise
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 1/2 cups fresh raspberries
For the garnish
fresh raspberries
fine-quality white chocolate at room temperature (about 72°F.), shaved with a vegetable peeler into curls and kept covered and chilled
fresh mint sprigs

Steps:

  • Make the white chocolate mousse:
  • In a bowl whisk together well the yolks, the sugar, and a pinch of salt, add the cornstarch, sifted, and whisk the mixture until it is just combined. Add the milk, scalded, in a stream, whisking, transfer the mixture to a heavy saucepan, and boil it, whisking, for 1 minute, or until it is very thick and smooth. Strain the pastry cream through a fine sieve into a bowl, stir in vanilla and the butter, and chill the pastry cream, its surface covered with plastic wrap, until it is cooled completely. In a metal bowl set over barely simmering water melt the white chocolate, stirring occasionally, and let it cool to lukewarm. In a large bowl whisk together the white chocolate and 1 cup of the pastry cream, reserving the remaining pastry cream for the raspberry mousse, until the mixture is combined well. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the heavy cream until it holds soft peaks, whisk one fourth of it into the white chocolate mixture, and fold in the remaining whipped cream gently but thoroughly.
  • Line the sides of an oiled 9 1/2-inch springform pan as smoothly as possible with pieces of plastic wrap (the plastic wrap prevents the filling from discoloring and makes unmolding the cake easier), letting the excess hang over the side, and put an 8-inch cardboard round in the bottom of the pan. Invert the top layer of the génoise onto the round, brush the cake with some of the framboise, and spread it evenly with half the white chocolate mousse (about 2 cups). Invert the middle layer of the génoise onto the mousse, brush it with some of the remaining framboise, and chill the cake and the remaining white chocolate mousse while preparing the raspberry mousse.
  • Make the raspberry mousse:
  • In a blender or food processor purée the raspberries with the reserved syrup and strain the purée through a fine sieve set over a metal bowl, pressing hard on the solids. In a small saucepan sprinkle the gelatin over the framboise and let it soften for 1 minute. Heat the mixture over moderately low heat, stirring, until the gelatin is dissolved and whisk it into the purée. Whisk the reserved pastry cream into the raspberry mixture, whisking until it is smooth, set the bowl in a larger bowl of ice and cold water, and whisk the mixture until it is the consistency of raw egg white. Remove the bowl from the ice water and in a bowl with an electric mixer beat the heavy cream until it holds soft peaks. Whisk one fourth of the whipped cream into the raspberry mixture and fold in the remaining whipped cream gently but thoroughly.
  • Spread about 1 cup of the raspberry mousse evenly over the middle layer of génoise in the pan, arrange some of the raspberries neatly around the edge of the pan, and continue to arrange the raspberries in concentric circles until the surface of the mousse is covered. Spread the remaining raspberry mousse over the raspberries, invert the third layer of génoise onto the mouse, and brush it with the remaining framboise. Spread the remaining white chocolate mousse over the génoise (the pan will be completely full) and chill the cake, its surface covered with a sheet of wax paper, for at least 6 hours or overnight. Remove the side of the pan, peel the plastic wrap carefully from the side of the cake, and transfer the cake with a spatula to a serving plate.
  • Garnish the cake:
  • Arrange some of the raspberries around the top edge of the cake, mound the white chocolate curls in the center, and garnish the bottom edge of the cake with the remaining raspberries and the mint sprigs.
  • Make the white chocolate génoise:
  • Line the bottom of a greased 8 1/2-inch springform pan with wax paper, grease the paper, and dust the pan with flour, knocking out the excess. In a metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water melt the white chocolate with the butter, the vanilla, and 3 tablespoons water, stirring until the mixture is smooth. Remove the bowl from the heat and let the mixture cool. Into a bowl sift together the flour and the salt. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat the eggs with the sugar on high speed for 5 minutes, or until the mixture is triple in volume and forms a ribbon when the beaters are lifted. Fold the flour mixture into the egg mixture until the batter is just combined and fold in the white chocolate mixture gently but thoroughly. Pour the batter into the pan, smoothing the top, and bake the cake in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 25 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Transfer the cake to a rack, run a sharp knife around the edge, and remove the side of the pan. Invert the cake onto another rack and remove the wax paper. Reinvert the cake onto the rack and let it cool completely.

8 boxes Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ white cake mix
10 cups water
2 2/3 cups vegetable oil
24 egg whites
32 cups powdered sugar (about 8 1/2 lb)
4 tablespoons meringue powder
4 cups shortening
2 cups milk
8 teaspoons vanilla
4 teaspoons almond extract
1 3/4 cups raspberry filling*
One each of 6-, 8- and 12-inch square cake pans (2 inches deep)
Serving tray (16x16-inch)
Cardboard for cakes
Wooden dowel rods for cake (1/4 inch in diameter)
Decorating bags with decorating tips
Royal icing flowers**

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F. Generously grease bottoms and sides of each square cake pan with solid shortening. Sprinkle with flour to coat pans; tap to remove excess flour.
  • To make batter for 6- and 8-inch pans, in large bowl, beat 2 boxes cake mix, 2 1/2 cups water, 2/3 cup oil and 6 egg whites with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Spread 2 1/4 cups batter in 6-inch pan and 4 1/4 cups batter in 8-inch pan. Cover remaining batter with plastic wrap; refrigerate.
  • Place both pans about 3 inches apart on middle oven rack in oven. Bake 6-inch cake 40 to 45 minutes and 8-inch cake 45 to 50 minutes. Cake is done when toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on cooling racks 15 minutes. Remove cakes from pans; place top sides up on cooling racks. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
  • To make batter for 12-inch pan, in large bowl, beat 2 boxes cake mix, 2 1/2 cups water, 2/3 cup oil and 6 egg whites with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Add batter to batter set aside in refrigerator; stir to combine. Spread 9 cups batter evenly in pan.
  • Bake 12-inch cake 50 to 60 minutes. Cake is done when toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on cooling rack 25 minutes. Remove cake from pan; place top side up on cooling rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
  • Each tier is made up of 2 layers of cake. To make another 6- and 8-inch layer, wash and dry both pans. Prepare pans again as directed in Step 1. Fill pans as directed in Step 2. Bake and cool as directed in Step 3.
  • Wash and dry 12-inch cake pan. Prepare pan again as directed in Step 1. For second layer, make batter, fill pan, bake and cool as directed in Steps 4 and 5.
  • To make frosting, in large bowl, stir together 8 cups powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon meringue powder. With electric mixer on low speed, beat in 1 cup shortening, 1/2 cup milk, 2 teaspoons vanilla and 1 teaspoon almond extract; beat on medium speed until smooth. Add additional milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, to make frosting spreadable consistency. Transfer frosting to another large bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Make frosting as directed 3 more times.
  • To assemble cake, with serrated knife, cut off domed top crust of each cake layer to form a flat surface. Carefully brush off crumbs from cakes.
  • Place about 1 tablespoon frosting on serving tray where first cake layer will be placed to keep cake from sliding on tray. Place 1 (12-inch) layer, cut side up, on tray. Place large round decorating tip in decorating bag; fill with frosting. Pipe around top inside edge of cake layer, forming a thick frosting border about 3/4 inch high. Spread 1 cup raspberry filling over top of cake inside frosting border. Top with second 12-inch cake layer, cut side down.
  • For 6- and 8-inch layers, make cardboard square to place cake tiers on by placing bottom of cake pans on cardboard; trace around pan edge. Cut out with scissors. For 6-inch tier, place small amount of frosting on center of cardboard square to hold cake in place. Place 6-inch cake layer, cut side up, on cardboard. Pipe a frosting border around top inside edge of cake. Spread 1/4 cup raspberry filling over top of cake inside border. Top with remaining 6-inch cake layer, cut side down. Repeat for 8-inch tier, using 8-inch cardboard square, both 8-inch cake layers and 1/2 cup raspberry filling.
  • To frost 6- and 8-inch tier, stir frosting. Using large spatula, carefully spread thin layer of frosting over sides of cakes, then over tops. Use spatula to push frosting, never allowing spatula to touch cake. (The purpose of this technique is to seal the crumbs to make frosting the cake easier.) Apply second thicker layer of frosting to sides and tops of cakes, spreading until smooth.
  • For a stacked cake where tiers are placed directly on top of one another, each tier will need to be supported by several dowel rods. To mark where to place 8-inch tier on top of 12-inch tier, center 8-inch cake pan, turned upside down, on top of 12-inch tier and gently press to make imprint; remove pan. Insert 1 dowel rod into center of 12-inch tier, straight down to tray. Mark rod with exact height of tier; remove rod. Cut 7 more rods to marked length. Insert rods into 12-inch cake, spacing evenly 1 1/2 inches apart within imprinted outline on 12-inch tier. Place 8-inch tier on top of 12-inch tier.
  • Mark 8-inch tier with imprint of 6-inch cake pan; remove pan. Cut and insert 8 dowel rods for 8-inch tier as directed in Step 13. Top 8-inch tier with 6-inch tier.
  • Use remaining frosting to decorate cake as desired. Add royal icing flowers.

SPARKLING WHITE CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CHAMPAGNE-RASPBERRY SAUCE



Sparkling White Chocolate Cake With Champagne-Raspberry Sauce image

This special-occasion cake has many steps. Luckily, they can be made in stages and you can assemble the cake the day before. For true white chocolate flavor, be sure that cocoa butter is a primary ingredient in the chocolate that you buy. Because the frosting has to chill completely, plan to make it at least four hours before frosting the cake.

  • In large bowl, whisk together eggs, 1 cup sugar and salt until blended. Set bowl over saucepan of barely simmering water (bowl should not touch water). Cook 2 to 3 minutes or until sugar is dissolved and mixture is warm to the touch, whisking constantly. Remove from heat.
  • Beat at medium-high speed 5 minutes or until mixture is pale and thick; beat in vanilla. Sift half of flour over egg mixture; gently fold until combined. Sift and fold in remaining flour. Stir about 1 cup of the cake batter into melted butter. Fold mixture back into batter. Divide batter between cake pans.
  • Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack 10 minutes. Run small knife around pan edges to loosen; invert onto rack; cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make syrup. Combine 1/2 cup of the Champagne and 1/4 cup sugar in medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Boil 2 to 3 minutes or until reduced to 1/2 cup. Place in small bowl; cool to room temperature.
  • To make sauce, place remaining 2 cups Champagne in another medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high to high heat; boil until reduced to 1 to 1 1/4 cups, about 10 minutes. Stir in raspberries and 1/4 cup of the jam; reduce heat to low. Simmer 1 minute or until jam is melted and raspberries are thawed. Cool slightly. Place mixture in food processor or blender; process until smooth. Strain through sieve to remove seeds. Cover and store in refrigerator.
  • To assemble cake, place one layer on serving platter or cardboard round. Brush with half of the syrup; spread with remaining 1/4 cup of the jam. Spread about 1/2 cup of the frosting over raspberry jam (don't worry if layers blend together). Top with second cake layer. Brush with remaining half syrup; frost top and sides of cake with remaining frosting. Using vegetable peeler, make chocolate curls or shavings. Press curls onto sides of cake. Store in refrigerator; let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before serving. Serve with raspberry sauce.

RASPBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH LEMON BUTTERCREAM



Raspberry White Chocolate Cake With Lemon Buttercream image

Sweet, buttery, lemony goodness! This is a decadent, impressive cake for special occasions or just because you love someone! My hubby requests this for Valentine's Day and anniversaries. I made it for my mom's 70th birthday celebration. It's that special. But it's easy to make, too. The only tricky part is splitting the 2 cake layers into 4. Even if you don't get it done perfectly (and my layers are sometimes a bit uneven), it will still look and taste great. The cake layers and frosting are from two different Cake Mix Doctor recipes. I put them together with the raspberry filling. Don't even think about ruining the cake by using raspberry jam with seeds.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 ounces white chocolate, coarsely chopped (can use 6 oz white choc chips)
1 (18 1/4 ounce) package white cake mix (the type withOUT pudding)
2/3 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
2 large egg whites
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
3/4 cup seedless raspberry preserves (do not use jam with seeds)
1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
4 cups powdered sugar, sifted
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
fresh raspberry (optional)

Steps:

  • For cake:.
  • Heat oven to 350. Generously grease and flour 2 9" round cake pans.
  • Melt the white chocolate in a small glass bowl in the microwave for 1 minute. (It will probably hold most of its shape even though it is starting to melt). Remove from the microwave and stir the chocolate with a rubber spatula until smooth. Let cool for approximately 5 minutes.
  • Place the cake mix, water, oil, eggs, egg whites, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a large bowl. Add the slightly cooled melted chocolate. Mix with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Stop your mixer and scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Using a medium speed, mix again for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Divide the batter between your prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a rubber spatula, then place the pans in the oven on the center rack, side by side.
  • Set the timer for 28 minutes and then check for doneness. The layers should be golden brown and spring back when lightly pressed with your finger. It may take up to 4 minutes longer in the oven, but don't overcook.
  • Remove from the oven and place on wire racks to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Run a knife around the edge of each layer and invert onto a rack, then invert on another rack so that each layer is right side up. Allow to cool for at least 30 more minutes.
  • For frosting:.
  • Place the butter and 1 cup of the powdered sugar in a large mixing bowl. With an electric mixer, beat on low speed for 30 seconds.
  • Add the remaining powdered sugar alternately with the milk and lemon juice (1 cup of sugar, then 1 T liquid at a time), blending with the mixer after each addition. Add the lemon zest. If the frosting seems very stiff, add up to 1 more tablespoon milk. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat until light and fluffy, approx 1 minute.
  • To assemble:.
  • Place the raspberry preserves in a small bowl and stir until it is smooth and no lumps are present.
  • Using a long serrated knife, carefully split the first cake layer horizontally into halves, creating 2 layers. Place the bottom half on a cake plate, cut side up. Spread ¼ cup of the raspberry preserves on it. Place the top half of the layer, cut side down, on top of the first half. Again, spread with ¼ cup of the preserves.
  • Split the 2nd layer in the same way you did the first. Place the bottom half on top of your partially assembled cake, cut side up, and top with the remaining ¼ cup of preserves. Then top with the top half, cut side down.
  • Frost the top and sides of the cake with the lemon buttercream frosting.
  • If you are garnishing the cake with fresh raspberries, wait until right before you serve it. Otherwise juice from the raspberries will start to spread into the frosting. It won't ruin it, but it won't look very pretty after a while.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

  • CURLS: Using a veggie peeler, carefully drag the peeler across the broad surface of the bar of white chocolate over sheets of wax paper- curls of peeled chocolate will fall.
  • Carefully arrange in a single layer in an airtight plastic container and chill (amount you make is up to you- you will want enough to completely cover the top of the cake at least).

WHITE CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY BUNDT CAKE RECIPE - (4.2/5)



White Chocolate Raspberry Bundt Cake Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by dkanon

Number Of Ingredients 13

FROSTING:
1 package white cake mix
1 (5-ounce) package instant white chocolate pudding (or vanilla pudding if you can't find white chocolate)
1 cup sour cream
4 large eggs
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup oil
1 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, chopped into smaller pieces
1 cup raspberry pastry or pie filling
2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a bundt pan. Mix first six ingredients, cake mix, pudding, sour cream, eggs, water and oil together with a beater. Fold in white chocolate chips until incorporated. Fill the prepared bundt pan with half of the batter. Spoon half of the raspberry filling in separated spoonfuls over the batter (so it looks like separate clumps of filling over the top). Using a knife swirl the filling through the cake. Don't overdo it! Only swirl around 2 to 3 times. Pour remaining batter in evenly and spoon in pie filling, repeating the "swirling" process above. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, checking for doneness with a knife. If the knife does not come out clean, keep placing back in the oven for 3 to 5 minutes at a time until it done and remove from oven. Let cool for 20 minutes. Remove from pan. Tastes best if you put it on a serving plate, wrap it well in Saran Wrap, and let it sit overnight in the fridge before frosting and serving. Frosting: In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and butter until a creamy texture is achieved. Mix in the vanilla, then gradually stir in the powdered sugar, starting with 2 cups then keep adding more until it is nice and thick. Note: To get the frosting like in the picture. Fill a Ziplog bag with the frosting and cut off the bottom corner depending on how big you want the "frosting strips". Frost cake by squeezing out the frosting from the outside of the cake toward the middle.

Tips:

  • To ensure your raspberry white cake is moist and fluffy, cream together the butter and sugar until light and creamy. This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a light and airy cake.
  • Use fresh raspberries for the best flavor. If using frozen raspberries, thaw them completely before using.
  • Gently fold the raspberries into the batter to avoid breaking them up. This will help keep the raspberries intact and prevent them from bleeding into the batter.
  • Bake the cake at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. Overbaking will dry out the cake and make it crumbly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting and running off the cake.
  • Use a cream cheese frosting for a classic raspberry white cake flavor. You can also use a whipped cream frosting or a buttercream frosting.
  • Decorate the cake with fresh raspberries, white chocolate shavings, or edible flowers for a beautiful presentation.

Conclusion:

Raspberry white cake is a delicious and elegant cake that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be decorated in a variety of ways. With these tips, you can make a raspberry white cake that is sure to impress your family and friends.
