I just got an order for a cake with Rasberry filling. What do I use? Jelly? I looked at filling recipes and only found one that called for pureeing rasberrys. I thought that was a litte extreme for what I needed. Please Help.
I like plain jane raspberry preserves. If you want something more creamy you can mix the preserves with some buttercream.
I just used the ra[berry filling from the wilton site today. It is basically just frozen berries, sugar, cornstarch and h2o. It was quite yummy. Enjoy!

this is an update...i made the raspberry curd following a lemon curd recipe. YUCK. too much butter and not tangy. i did find a recipe online though. it had less butter and it also had a little lemon juice. i have not made that one yet though. but definately look for a recipe. do not just substitute.

I have been messing around with a few ideas because I've been making a few raspberry cakes the past few months and getting into filling lol. Well I dont really like the jam idea, it seems rather well jam like lol and sweet and boring? I have decided I liked the following filling or variations thereof- what I did actually for the second one was add thawed frozen (fresh were no longer around) raspberries slightly mushed folded right into the plain BC icing. The fact taht it curdled or sort of did didnt matter as it wasnt going on the outside (that was the giraffe cake, not that you can tell because I covered it, Although the border was icky red cause I was low on BC and thought I could extend it by adding the last bit of filling and well yaknow that didnt work 
) but the cake went over well (by everyone cept the birthday woman and her kids who dont like dense cakes hahaha,. But everyone else liked lol.
Raspberry cream filling: (from the raspberry cream cake recipe on CC)
1/2 pint extra heavy whipping cream
3 Tbsp confectioners sugar
1/4 cup seedless raspberry jam (instead of jam I subbed real raspberries and I also on the last 2 berry cakes I filled, I put a sprinkly layer of raspberries on the cake layer, then I put the filling down and then more berries. Anyway my own little concoctions lol but I like creamy fillings.
Good luck
OK, this is my pie recipe; but I think you could use the glaze part for a cake filling. I would also suggest using Solo brand canned pastry and cake filling, the raspberry is good, the cherry nasty.
Strawberry Glaze Pie or Red Raspberry Glaze Pie
1 quart strawberries
1 baked pie shell
Glaze:
1 cup whole strawberries
(From the above quart)
3/4 cup water
1 cup sugar
3 Tbsp. cornstarch
Glaze: Put 1 cup of strawberries and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Mix sugar and cornstarch; add to strawberry liquid and cook until clear. (You can add 2 or 3 drops of red food coloring to the glaze if you want a more intense color.)
Arrange remaining quart of cleaned and hulled strawberries in a baked pie shell, cut very large berries in half. Pour cooled glaze over strawberries. Serve with whipped topping.
Alternative: Use fresh red raspberries instead of strawberries.
