Demande: Strawberry, Green tea, Mascarpone rare cheese cake

 I'm in the mood for everything entremets, hehe, and I'm so happy to create it.

 Because when staying at my sister's house I didn't have all of the equipment that I needed and my friend told me that I shouldn't buy everything in 2, haha. So I kept thinking about what I wanted to make and wrote it down instead. When I had a chance to make it, I was in my little baking world and I forgot to take the photos of how to, -*-.
I named it "Demande", it means demand or request, this time it came from myself not other people, I felt like I needed to make it. The outside is green tea mascarpone rare cheese cake, the insides are strawberry mousse and strawberry jelly. The bottom of the cake made from digestive biscuits and melted butter
Anyway this cake is not hard to make, so even without the photo, I know that you can make it, ^^. Just don't forget to follow the step of making it, you will need to freeze some parts of the cake before assembling.
The size of the cake is important, 5.5 cm is great because the quantity of the cheese, mousse and jelly will be balance, the green tea mascarpone cheese part is very rich and not too sweet, it will be more delicious when eating with the mousse and jelly. 
I think serve it with hot tea is the best, why? Because it makes the cake less rich and you can eat more of it, hehe.

Take the pan out of the heat, then add the gelatin, stir until smooth.
Pour into small half sphere silicone mold and freeze overnight.

Make Strawberry mousse:



Bloom the gelatin in the cold water.
Pour half of the strawberry with the sugar into the microwavable bowl, heat for 1-2 minutes until hot.
Put the gelatin into the  strawberry puree, whisk to combine.
Pour the hot mixture into the rest of raspberry puree, beat to combine. Let the mixture cool.

Whisk cream just to soft peaks.


Gently fold 1/3 of the cream into the strawberry mixture.

Gently fold back the strawberry and cream mixture into the cream. The mixture will be quite loose.

Assemble the mousse insert:

Pour the strawberry mousse into small cylinder silicone molds and place 1 half sphere of jelly on top of it. Do the same for the rest of the mousse and jelly. Freeze at least 4 hours.

Whisk the mascarpone cheese with sugar, add the yogurt and green tea mixture, whisk until just comebine. Put the mixture in a piping bag.

Assemble the cake:


Remove the mousse inserts from the molds, and sandwich together ( the jelly sides).

Place the mousse inserts on the biscuit crust. Pipe the cheese cake mixture over the insert, and refrigerate until firm.

To serve:

Take the cake out of the dessert rings, decorate with whipped cream and fresh strawberries.
