The Dark Cherry Jelly and Mascarpone Cream in a Fried Sponge Cake that I present to you today is really delicious. It is one of those desserts that you prepare during the weekend and you can enjoy it with some friends or family.
Have you ever tried fried sponge cake?
I was very skeptical about making this dessert, frying the sponge cake, how will come out.
Instead, it was triumphant. I cannot describe the goodness of this cake! I suggest you follow my step-by-step recipe and try it. And let me know how it turns out!
The mascarpone cream is the classic one that you might’ve noticed in other amazing recipes (that you should also check out) like the Sbriciolata Cake or in Puffy Twist. It is a rich and smooth cream and a perfect filling for any type of dessert. Together with the dark Cherry Jelly, they form a perfect combination to go along with the fried sponge cake.
