Ingredients
Steps
-
Use a knife to scrape 50 grams of chocolate into pieces
-
I can’t buy fresh cherries this season, so I’ll use sugar-soaked cherries instead, or even better, maraschino cherries.
-
Core and chop, add a tablespoon (about 15 grams of rum soaked).
-
Cut six-inch cocoa chiffon into three even slices.
-
Whip 220 grams of fresh cream and 25 grams of white sugar. I chilled the basin used to whip the cream in the refrigerator for an hour. When the weather is hot, beat it through ice water or ice cubes to prevent the cream from melting.
-
After whipping, there are obvious lines.
-
Place a piece of cake base on the largest plate and brush it with the water from the soaked cherries.
-
Apply a thin layer of cream and a layer of chopped cherries.
-
Take the second piece of cake base, spread a thin layer of butter on top of the first layer, and press lightly with your hands.
-
After repeating the above action, apply a layer of cream all over the cake base to turn the cake base into a cylinder.
-
Use a silicone brush to gently sweep the chocolate crumbs onto the cake base. It is not easy to stick to the cylinder. You can use the handle of a spoon to stick it little by little and press it lightly. There was a small piece of cream left in the basin, which looked slightly melted. I squeezed it on top for decoration.
