Heavenly Triple Berry Cloud Cake Recipe
Ingredients:
For the Cake:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
For the Triple Berry Whipped Topping:
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup fresh strawberries, mashed
- 1/4 cup fresh raspberries, mashed
- 1/4 cup fresh blueberries, mashed
- Fresh berries for garnish
Instructions:
1. Make the Cake:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk and whole milk.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth.
- Gently fold in the fresh strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries until evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
2. Prepare the Triple Berry Whipped Topping:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer until it begins to thicken.
- Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to beat until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold in the mashed strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries until well combined. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
- If you want a more intense berry flavor, you can fold in a bit more mashed fruit, adjusting to your preference.
3. Assemble the Cake:
- Once the cake is completely cooled, spread a generous layer of the berry whipped topping over the top of the cake, smoothing it out with a spatula.
- Garnish with additional fresh berries around the edge and center of the cake for a burst of color.
4. Serve and Enjoy:
- Slice and serve your Heavenly Triple Berry Cloud Cake — the perfect blend of light, fluffy cake and fresh, fruity topping!
Tips:
- For a more vibrant berry topping, you can use a mix of mashed fresh berries and a small amount of berry jam or preserves.
- If you prefer a thicker, more stable whipped topping, you can add a bit of powdered gelatin or whipped cream stabilizer.
- This cake is best served on the day it’s made, but it can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
This Heavenly Triple Berry Cloud Cake is the perfect light and fruity dessert for any occasion, with just the right amount of sweetness and a refreshing berry burst!
