    Pour into your prepared baking tin and bake for approx 30/40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into cake comes out clean. Let cake cool completely in tin then carefully remove.

    Cake will be very delicate so be careful when removing baking tin. If, like me you have a crack or a little bit gets stuck in tin, don't worry just flip cake over onto its "top" as you are going to cover it with raspberry cream, no one will notice.
     

    Raspberry Cream:

    Place most of the fresh raspberries in a bowl, reserving some for decorating the top later. Using a fork, squish the berries down until you have a paste like compote.

    In a separate bowl, whisk up the cream till its nice and thick and holds its own, then carefully fold in the squished raspberry compote adding any icing sugar as you go to your own taste. Personally, I like the cream to be sharp and tangy, so I don't add too much sugar.

    When fully mixed spread cream mixture all over top (or bottom) of cake and decorate with leftover rasps.

     

    Dust over top with icing sugar and refrigerate till ready to serve.
