When I saw the raw file, it's 1 hour of shooting time ^^", and I tried my best to make it shorter. Finally, it's about 3 and a half minutes, I hope you enjoy it.
This entremets is not hard to make, but as you know, it needs time and preparation. You need to follow the step because there are some parts that need to be frozen before using, and I know that most of us don't have blaze freezer, so we have to wait. But some of the step can be made at the same time. You can bake the sponge cake, make the jelly (and turn them into an insert), make the mascarpone mousse base in 1 day, then the next day making the mousse and assemble the entremets. You can keep it in the freezer for a week, remove and cover it with Chantilly cream the day you want to serve it.
It's quite fun for me to make this kind of dessert, first is when I thinking about it and the best moment is when eating it. If you never make this kind of cake before, and you love to spending time focus on something, I really suggest you to try it, ^^, and you will be happy like me too.

Berry, Vanilla Mascarpone entremets: with Video instruction
Beautiful and looks so delicious. Would love to make this, but what is invert sugar and where can I find it? What does your package look like?
ReplyDeleteHey,
ReplyDeleteThe entremets is stunning and delicious! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe and the video I really appreciate it! You are such an impressive pastry chef and I think you are really talented!
Thank you so much! :)
Hi, both Anonymous.
ReplyDeleteThank you ^^.
For your information about invert sugar: Invert sugar is much sweeter than sucrose (granulated sugar) and is created by splitting sucrose into two equal parts, glucose and fructose. Products made with invert sugar tend to be more moist and are less prone to crystallization. Unlike typical sucrose, invert sugar is a syrup.
You can use honey instead of invert sugar but choose the runny one (and note that honey has its fragrance, when invert sugar has no fragrance).
What a gorgeous torte! Love your video too, very well shot :D I will have to make an entremet like this someday...
