Instructions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the egg yolks, half of the sugar, warm milk, lemon zest, and vegetable oil. Mix until well blended.
Sift in the flour and baking powder to ensure there are no lumps.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with the remaining sugar until they form stiff peaks. Then, fold the egg white mixture into the yolk mixture in three additions, stirring gently to keep the mixture light and airy.
Pour the batter into a greased baking pan, about 18-20 cm (7-8 inches) in diameter, and bake at 160°C (320°F) for 40-45 minutes.
Once baked, let the biscuit cool completely before removing it from the pan and wrapping it in plastic wrap. Allow it to rest for 6-8 hours.
Step 2
Soak the gelatin in water according to the package instructions until it softens. For Dr. Oetker, use hot water and stir until dissolved.
In a bowl, mix the lemon juice, room temperature cream cheese, and sugar until smooth. Incorporate the dissolved gelatin and mix well.
Whip the cream in a chilled bowl until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cheese mixture until combined.
Pour the lemon mousse into a 14-16 cm (5.5-6.5 inches) round mold and freeze until solid.
Step 3
Similar to the lemon mousse, soak the gelatin in water until dissolved. Use hot water if it's Dr. Oetker.
Heat the raspberries in a saucepan until they come to a boil, then purée them using a blender until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with sugar until pale and fluffy, then slowly mix this into the raspberry purée while stirring continuously. Heat the mixture gently until it thickens slightly, reaching about 80°C (176°F), then remove from heat.
Blend in the white chocolate, and after 1-2 minutes, stir in the dissolved gelatin until fully combined. If needed, use a blender to smooth out the mixture.
Beat the cream in a chilled bowl until soft peaks form, then gently fold in the raspberry mixture.
Wrap an 18 cm (7 inches) round mold with plastic wrap, pour in the raspberry mousse, and freeze it until completely set.

Variations
Looking to cater to dietary preferences or restrictions? This Lemon Raspberry Cake can easily transform into gluten-free and vegan delights! 🌱
For a gluten-free version: Replace regular flour with almond flour or a gluten-free flour blend. Just make sure you check that all your ingredients are gluten-free, particularly the baking powder!
To make it vegan: Swap out the eggs by using flaxseed meal or applesauce as a binding agent and select a plant-based cream cheese and whipped coconut cream for your mousse. These simple substitutions allow everyone to indulge without compromise!
Faq
- Can I use all-purpose flour instead of cake flour?
Yes, you can, but please note that cake flour will give you a lighter and fluffier sponge, suitable for this cake.
- How do I know when the cake is done baking?
Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, your cake is ready!
- Can I make the mousse a day in advance?
Absolutely! The mousse sets well, and preparing it a day early can save you time. Just keep it refrigerated until you're ready to assemble.
- What’s the best way to thaw the frozen cake if I make it ahead?
The best method is to transfer it to the fridge a few hours before serving. This allows it to thaw slowly and maintain its texture.
- Is there a specific method for folding ingredients into the batter?
Yes! Use a gentle folding motion, starting from the bottom of the bowl to the top, gradually incorporating your dry ingredients without deflating the mixture.
- Can I add other fruits to the mousse?
Definitely! You can experiment with other berries such as strawberries or blueberries for a different flavor profile.
