Desert - Layered Cake with Cream Stripes by Adina F. - Recipia

We start by preparing the two creams, essential for bringing our cake to life. The first is the white cream. Place the heavy cream in a bowl set over a bain-marie, ensuring that the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl. Gently heat the cream until it begins to simmer. Once it reaches the boiling point, carefully pour it over the grated white chocolate. Mix vigorously with a spatula or whisk until all the chocolate is completely melted and a homogeneous mixture forms. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it cool for at least 5 hours; ideally, you should prepare it in the evening and leave it overnight. After it has cooled, incorporate the mascarpone, mixing well until you achieve a fluffy and airy cream. Place the cream in a piping bag with the desired tip and keep it at room temperature if you have all the other components ready for assembly. For the black cream, follow the same steps, just replace the white chocolate with dark chocolate. This way, you will obtain an intense cream with a deep chocolate flavor. Continuing with the syrup, bring water with sugar to a boil, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved. Once the syrup is ready, remove it from the heat and set aside 50 ml. In the remaining syrup, add the dissolved instant coffee in a little hot water or, if you prefer, rum or vanilla to taste. Let it cool. For the striped sheet, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, gradually adding the powdered sugar. Incorporate the yolks mixed with a pinch of salt, and finally, add the sifted flour. Divide the mixture in two, adding cocoa to one part. Place the mixtures in separate bags and pipe alternating stripes along the length of the baking tray lined with parchment paper, creating an attractive pattern. Place the tray in the preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 10 minutes, being careful not to let the top color too much. After baking, remove it from the tray and let it cool. For the cocoa sheet, repeat the process of beating the egg whites with sugar and incorporate the yolks mixed with salt, followed by the mixture of cocoa, sifted flour, and ground almonds. Pour the mixture into the lined tray and bake at the same temperature. Let it cool completely. Next, prepare the glaze by melting the heavy cream and oil over a bain-marie, adding the grated chocolate. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is homogeneous. Assemble the cake in the tray where you baked the layers. Place the striped sheet in the tray, alternating the two creams according to the colors of the layers. If the black stripe of the layer is covered with the black cream, then the white stripe will be covered with the white cream. Continuing, place the cocoa sheet, which you will soak with half of the coffee syrup. Carefully invert the preparation onto the bottom of another tray, then return it to the original tray, which has been lined with nylon foil. After placing the soaked cocoa layer, alternate the creams again. Finally, the glaze will be carefully poured over the cake, leaving everything to cool for at least 2 hours before serving. This chocolate layer cake with delicate creams will surely become the star of any meal!
