Whether referred to as a charlotte, mousse cake or modern entremet, these European types of cakes provide the ideal vessel to showcase sponge cakes and mousses. In the third of five Cake Baking Essentials Certificate classes, brought to you by NY Cake Academy’s Baking & Pastry Fundamentals, you’ll be guided through each component from sponge cakes to various mousse types and the importance of presenting with a glaze. Learn the techniques for making meringues, as well as the separated-egg foam and hybrid mixing methods which are key in achieving the desired texture of a sponge cake. Our expert instructors will teach you about various glaze types, including the very popular mirror glaze, and provide tips for cake assembly and glazing. Complete the class with not one, but two, finished cakes—a Glazed Orange Chiffon and Raspberry Mousse Cake.
