Dessert works really well with Cream Sherry, Port Wine, and Moscato d'Asti. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. You could try NV Johnson Estate Cream Sherry. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 19 dollars per bottle.

NV Johnson Estate Cream Sherry

Very aromatic with notes of hazelnut, vanilla, and a touch of oak followed by sweet raisins and a touch of yeast. Clean lasting finish. Good now but will reward those allow it to age"". A favorite pre-prandial beverage. Consider it with nuts before dinner as an aperitif, or after dinner with dessert, especially chocolates and fruit-based desserts. Also wonderful on cold afternoons, served with biscotti to dip in ""Italian-style"". "

Instructions

  1. Cake, raspberry gelee and meyer lemon curd can be made beforehand. I made them the night before and then refrigerated them overnight.
  2. Cake
  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter 3 9-inch round pans, line with parchment paper, and butter and flour the paper.
  4. In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. (If the sugar is not incorporating smoothly, add additional coconut oil.) Incorporate the egg whites, one at a time, beating after each addition. Beat in vanilla extract and almond extract.
  5. In a separate bowl combine wheat flour, almond flour, baking powder and salt.
  6. Alternate adding the flour mixture and the milk into the mixer, in about four additions.
  7. Divide into the 3 cake pans and cook for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
  8. Raspberry Gelee
  9. Line 2 9-inch round pans with parchment paper.
  10. Combine the water and gelatin, set aside.
  11. In a saucepan, combine sugar and raspberries and cook on medium-low heat until sugar is dissolved, and raspberries are and reduced to a puree, mashing them with a spatula as they thaw.
  12. Remove from heat and add gelatin, stirring until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
  13. Pour into the cake pans and allow to come to room temperature, then store in refrigerator until ready to use.
  14. Meyer Lemon Curd Crme
  15. Whisk together zest, juice, sugar and eggs in a heavy saucepan. Add butter and cook over medium-low heat, whisking frequently, until curd is thick enough to hold marks of the whisk, about 6-8 minutes.
  16. Strain through a sieve, and let cool to room temperature. Cool in refrigerator until ready to use.
  17. When ready to assemble cake, combine curd with 1 cup of the whipped cream.
  18. When ready to assemble cake, prepare whipped cream and frosting.)
  19. Whipped Cream
  20. In an electric mixer whip heavy cream and powdered sugar until
  21. Combine the water and gelatin, set aside.
  22. Almond Crme Frosting
  23. In an electric mixer combine all ingredients until light and fluffy.
  24. Combine with remaining whipped cream (minus 1 cup reserved for the curd.)
  25. To Assemble
  26. Place one cake layer on a cake stand. Spread enough lemon curd on top to cover the layer. Add one of the raspberry gelee layers.
  27. Take another layer of cake. Spread more lemon curd on the bottom of the layer and place on top of the first layer. This way you have lemon curd both above and below the raspberry gelee.
  28. Repeat for the final layer.
  29. Frost cake, and top with fresh raspberries and/or toasted almonds.
  30. TIP: Cake tastes better after sitting overnight.
