Modern cake: what is it? Today, a dessert can include several different flavors, types of dough, and colors that blend harmoniously. Mostly modern cakes, the recipes of which are quite simple, consist of biscuit cakes, crispy, jelly or cream filling, mousse and top layer decor. Depending on the upcoming event, the taste and appearance of the cake can be adjusted.

Chocolate Biscuit

Modern cake must be prepared strictly following the instructions. Chocolate Biscuit Cake Recipe Contains Ingredients:

• sugar - 60 g;
• eggs - 4 pcs;
• honey (trimoline) - 15g;
• flour - 35 g;
• cocoa powder - 15g;
• soda/baking powder - 2g

Combine 2 yolks with half of the total sugar. Beat until stiff foam and add 2 eggs. In another container, grind 2 proteins with the second half of the sugar. Everything is whipped and honey or trimoline is added. As a result, combine both resulting masses into one and mix thoroughly.

Flour, baking powder, cocoa powder add gradually. The dough should be liquid. Pour it into a mold andput in the oven and bake at 200 degrees for five minutes.

Apple jelly

Apple jelly is added to the modern cake to give the dessert a game of flavors. To do this, you need to prepare:

• gelatin - 4g;
• water - 24g;
• apple juice - 180 ml;
• sugar - 250 g;
• whiskey - 20ml.

Gelatin must be soaked in water. Bring apple juice to a boil and add whiskey to it. If the recipe calls for modern cakes for boys or girls for a children's party, then the whiskey is replaced with apple juice. Now dry caramel is being prepared. Pour sugar into a saucepan, distribute it evenly over the entire bottom of the pan and put on the stove. It is very important not to stir the contents of the saucepan, otherwise the caramel will harden immediately. As soon as the mass takes on a caramel color of the desired intensity, it must be set aside and immediately add boiling apple juice. Mix thoroughly.

Pour the resulting liquid jelly into a mold with a diameter slightly smaller than the size of biscuit cakes and send it to harden in the cold.

Crispy layer

Modern cake recipes with a crispy layer are more popular with those with a sweet tooth.

Preparing dry pralines. To do this, shelled nuts (you can use your favorite variety, but the classic preparation of modern cakes requires the use of almonds) should be chopped into medium-sized pieces. They are laid out in a pre-heated pan and sprinkled with sugar. The ratio is recommended to take one to two (one part sugar to two parts nuts). Everything is brought to the complete melting of sugar. The finished mass is laid out on a silicone board or in any container, cooled and crushed.

Waffle crumbs in the amount of 50 grams are added to the resulting mixture, everything is mixed and crushed with a blender. At the end, add sugar (2 tablespoons) for a crunch.

Melt the dark chocolate in a water bath, grease the finished cakes and sprinkle the finished praline with a layer of 1 to 21 mm on top.

Vanilla mousse

This component will make the cake modern and original, and to some extent aristocratic. For mousse, prepare:

• yolks - 4 pcs;
• sugar - 30g;
• milk - 150 ml;
• fat cream (35%) - 650 ml;
• gelatin - 4g;
• chocolate - 0.5 kg.

Combine yolks with sugar and beat until stiff white foam. Heat cream in a volume of 150 ml and milk on a stove, add vanilla (if desired) and pour in the yolk mass. Heat over low heat to a temperature of about 85 degrees. Stir continuously with a whisk during the process.

Introduce gelatin into the resulting cream. Finely chop the chocolate, put it in a prepared deep container and pour hot cream on top. Mix everything until all ingredients are completely dissolved. Whip heavy cream in a volume of 450 ml and carefully fold into the chocolate cream. Mousse is ready.

How to assemblecake

Modern cake most often has a round shape, but if you wish, you can make it in a different form. Half of the mousse is laid out in the prepared form and evenly distributed. Place the mold in the refrigerator to set for 10 minutes. After the lapse of time, on top of the seized mousse, lay out the frozen jelly very carefully and distribute it in the center. Then pour the rest of the mousse into the mold. The biscuit is laid out on top with the crispy side down, and the workpiece is sent to the refrigerator for the whole night. It is advisable that the cake stand in the cold for at least 14 hours. Then it remains to decorate the dessert in the required theme with mastic.

Mastic

For cooking you will need:

• marshmallow - 200 g (1 pack);
• powdered sugar - 400 g;
• lemon juice - 15g;
• butter - 10 g;
• food coloring.

The mixture is placed in the microwave or oven for 1-2 minutes. then dyes are added to the mass. If you plan to make a cake in several colors, then the mastic is divided into the required number of parts.

Mastic is kneaded, powdered sugar is added to it gradually. Everything is kneaded until the mixture loses stickiness.
