  • ¼ cup water

Instructions

To make the cake:

  • Grease and line two sponge tins (I used an 8 inch spring form tin twice)
  • Whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  • Beat the egg yolks with the erythritol.
  • Add the vanilla extract, ginger baking powder and coconut flour. Whisk until combined.
  • Gently fold in the egg whites.
  • Pour into the cake tins and bake for 15 minutes until golden and firm.
  • Set aside to cool.

To make the mousse

  • Heat up the water, add the gelatin (or agar agar) and stir until combined.
  • Blend the raspberries until smooth and add to the gelatin mixture.
  • Beat the eggs with the erythritol. Add the raspberry mixture and stir well.
  • Whip the cream into stiff peaks.
  • Fold the cream into the raspberry mixture and stir well.

To assemble the cake

  • Place one sponge in the bottom of the spring form cake tin.
  • Pour the mousse on top and spread out evenly.
  • Place the other sponge on top of the mousse gently.
  • Put into the fridge for at least 4 hours, allowing the mousse to set.
  • Remove the cake from the spring form tin.
  • Slice, eat and enjoy!
