STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat & Prep Pans
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper circles; lightly grease sides with baking spray.
2. Make Pistachio Sponge Cake
- In a bowl, whisk ground pistachios, flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a stand mixer (whisk attachment), beat eggs, sugar, and vanilla on medium-high for 6–8 minutes until pale, thick, and tripled in volume (ribbon stage).
- Sift dry mix over eggs in 3 additions; fold gently with a silicone spatula.
- Drizzle in cooled melted butter; fold until just combined.
- Divide batter evenly between pans.
- Bake 22–25 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool in pans 10 min → invert onto wire rack, remove parchment, cool completely.
3. Make Raspberry Gelée Filling
- Purée raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a blender.
- Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a saucepan (discard seeds).
- Bloom gelatin in 2 tbsp cold water for 5 min.
- Heat purée until steaming; whisk in bloomed gelatin until dissolved.
- Cool to room temp until slightly thickened (like honey).
4. Assemble First Layer
Place one cooled sponge on a cake board. Spread raspberry gelée evenly, leaving a ¼-inch border. Chill 20–30 min until set.
5. Make Cream Cheese Frosting
- Beat softened cream cheese + butter until fluffy (2 min).
- Gradually add sifted powdered sugar on low, then beat on medium.
- Add vanilla; beat until silky smooth.
6. Frost & Stack Cake
- Spread thick layer of frosting over set gelée.
- Top with second sponge; press gently.
- Apply crumb coat; chill 15 min.
- Apply final smooth frosting layer on top and sides.
7. (Optional) Pistachio Mirror Glaze
- Bloom gelatin in ¼ cup cold water (5 min).
- Heat sugar + remaining water until dissolved; remove from heat.
- Stir in bloomed gelatin → pour over white chocolate. Let sit 2 min → whisk smooth.
- Add condensed milk + green food coloring.
- Cool to 90°F (32°C) → pour over chilled frosted cake on a rack.
- Chill 10 min to set.
8. Garnish & Serve
Decorate with fresh raspberries, chopped pistachios, and gold leaf. Chill 2+ hours before slicing with a hot, dry knife for clean cuts.
PRO BAKING TIPS from CookingMaster by Carmine
- Room temp eggs = better volume in sponge cake.
- Don’t overfold – keeps cake light and airy.
- Strain raspberry seeds for smooth gelée.
- Mirror glaze at 90°F = perfect drip and shine.
- Make ahead: Cake layers freeze up to 1 month.
