Raspberries are finally here. I´m excited about it since there is no better combination than raspberries and chocolate. However, I chose to leave out chocolate this time. I´ve been thinking about the bold red color of red velvet cake for a while and it came to me to combine it with raspberries. There was finally the time for fresh raspberries, therefore time for this combination as well – Red Velvet Raspberry Mascarpone Cake Roll. Fluffy cake with bold red color and subtle cocoa taste was rolled into a cake roll, filled with mascarpone and a little bit of heavy cream filling and sprinkled with fresh raspberries. Bold red color of the cake creates a lovely contrast with white filling and its taste is also amazing – fluffy cake, sweet and creamy taste of mascarpone and sweet and sour taste of raspberries are just the right thing during summer.

Bohužiaľ sa mi po dopečení a pri rolovani cesto celé zlomilo. 🙁 Máte na to nejaký postup ako treba cesto rolovať?
To ma mrzí, jedine ho rolovať, keď je ešte teplé, skoro až horúce, tým by sa malo predísť zlomeniu. Ja ho rolujem rovno so silikónovou podložkou, keďže sa s ňou dobre pracuje – horúce a zrolované nechám vychladnúť. Keď vychladne, tak vtedy cesto aj podložku odrolujem. Snáď už to nabudúce vyjde lepšie 🙂
