Moreover, such a dessert has a clear advantage; you can decorate almost any cake or pie with berries. You can pick up pastries to your taste, and then make a decoration. There are a lot of grape cake recipes, below are some of them.

Curd dessert

Such a cake with grapes, the photo of which can be seen below, will be so tender and airy that it will amaze even the most fastidious sweet tooth.

Ingredients:

• sugar - half a glass;
• lemon juice - 3 tablespoons;
• cottage cheese - about half a kilo (the fat content of the product does not matter);
• curdled milk or natural yogurt - one glass;
• gelatin - one tablespoon;
• grapes – gram 300-350;
• shortbread - 150-170 grams;
• butter - 80 grams.

Cooking process.

1. Bfirst of all, the basis for the future dessert is made. The butter should be well softened, but not melted. Grind shortbread cookies into crumbs, for this you can use a blender or coffee grinder. Mix the butter with crumbs well, you get a dough-like mass, it should be elastic. Lubricate the form well with oil and put the resulting “dough” into it. It will be necessary to lay not only on the bottom, but also on the walls. This is the foundation.
2. It's time for the stuffing. You need to take some cool water and pour gelatin into it. For some time it must be left so that it swells well. At this time, you can just grind the cottage cheese with yogurt and sugar. Since we have a cake with grapes, we take the prepared berries and separate them from the seeds. If the grapes are too large, then it is worth cutting them. It is advisable to set aside a few things for decoration.
3. Gelatin is most likely already swollen, so you can put it on a slow fire and wait until it becomes liquid. Now you need to mix the gelatin and curd masses well, adding grapes and lemon juice to them. All this must be beaten well so that the filling is airy.
4. Now the filling needs to be laid out on the sand base prepared earlier. Next, an almost ready dessert is sent to the refrigerator for several hours, and preferably at night. In winter, you can completely use the balcony for freezing. After that, it would not hurt to decorate the cake with grapes and kiwi.
5. If the dessert is well frozen, then it can be served.

Fragrant pastries

This cakecan be decorated to look a lot like a grape cake.

What you need:

• butter - 100 grams;
• milk ¼ cup;
• soda - one teaspoon;
• grapes - 250-300 grams;
• zest of one orange;
• vanillin - one sachet.

Cooking algorithm.

1. It is necessary to grind the zest of an orange, it is best to do this with a fine grater. It will be needed not only as a flavor, but also as a bright solar dye.
2. Eggs must be ground with sugar so that foam is obtained.



You can use a mixer for this. Softened butter is first added to the egg mass, then vanillin, zest and milk.

3. Continuing to beat the mass, you need to introduce flour into it. That's where the soda goes. The main thing is not to forget to extinguish it with vinegar or lemon juice.
4. Berries need to be washed. Can be cut if desired. They also go to a common bowl, and the dough is mixed well again.
5. The baking dish is greased with oil, the dough is poured into it. Bake this fragrant dessert at a temperature of 170 degrees for about an hour.

Sour cream dessert

How to cook:

1. From the total amount of cooked flour, select three tablespoons, mix the rest with butter. Then an egg and two tablespoons of sugar interfere there. Next, the dough must be kneaded and placed in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
2. Grease the form with oil and put the dough into it, be sure to make the sides.
3. Berries are laid out on top of the dough. They can be pre-crushed.

5. The cake is baked at a temperature of 180 degrees for 40-50 minutes. Until the sour cream turns rosy.

How to choose grapes

The berries should be dense so that after heat treatment they do not lose their shape. It is better to take grapes sweet and ripe, then it will be possible to reduce the amount of sugar, and this will have a positive effect on the taste. We need to try to find a seedless variety so that we don’t get rid of them later.
