Coffee & Chocolate Entremet

So I decided to try to make a entremet again. Still not perfect, but flavors were great! 👍 Well, it looks pretty good on the outside, the layers inside still not perfect.

These cakes definitely need a lot of skill, but with trial and error, I will get there! 🏋️‍♀️

So let’s talk recipe. It is very time-consuming. 😂🤣😂

I did one part each day in the evening. Once I finished making the cookies, I saved them in an airtight container. Once I finished the cake and the chocolate crisp, I saved them in the freezer, covered with plastic wrap. The day you make the mousse is the assembly day.  Once the cakes are assembled leave them in the freezer overnight. Once I covered the cakes with the mirror glaze I put them on top of the cookies and I put the cake in the freezer.

On the day of serving the cake, remove from the freezer into the fridge about 2 hours prior. I decorated my cakes with gold sanding sugar.

As you might notice in the below picture the cookie looks a little bit whitish, this because the cookie was still a bit frozen. If you let it thaw completely it won’t look like that. I was in a hurry to take the picture (my bad 🙄).

Mango Delight

This was the second time I tried a cake of this “genre”.

The first time I tried a mirror glazed cake was for mothers day it turned out pretty good, but my mirror glaze got thick to quick.

Also, the berry jelly on the inside was heavier than the mousse so it ended up staying on the bottom (on the image you can see the top of the cake has an indentation).

Taste wise it was a hit! I will try making this one again and post it here.

I wanted to try something different this time, and I did buy recently on my trip to Portugal the rectangular silicone molds, so I had to try them out. I also wanted to do something with mango. I looked for recipes online and I couldn’t find one where I had the ingredients and wasn’t too time-consuming. So I combined 3 different recipes from 3 different bloggers (Cakelets and Doilies;  Pastry Workshop & HidaMari ASMR Cooking)

Visually it’s not perfect. Well, not too far from it, but taste wise it is perfection! The mousse is light with a subtle mango taste, but when you get a bite of the mango jelly you get all the flavor. The coconut jaconde gives a different texture to the cake and the flavor is a great tropical combination.
