Hello awesome CC members....

I have just rec'd an order for a choc cake w/ raspberry filling....I've never done raspberry filling, but it's the lady's fav. so I want to do it right. Please please let me know which recipes/tech. you like best and hopefully foolproof (I totally bombed making white choc mousse filling).

Also....what's the Blue Ribbon Choc. Cake like? Should I use that?

TIA icon_biggrin.gif

I just buy the premade raspberry filling in the long tube for 2.79 and so far have not had a problem with it. From talking to others I have learned that either you really, really like it or you hate it. I like it ~ taste like the fillings in donuts. It is also very sweet.

I bet others out there will have great recipes. icon_smile.gif

You can also use seedless raspberry jam as a filling. I know a lot of people who like chocolate and raspberry together.... it used to be the chic thing to do.

For strawberry filling i use pre made desert glaze (strawberry flavored) it is made by litehouse and can be found in the produce section. I then add finely chopped fresh strawberries to it. It tastes GREAT and it is quick and easy.

There are lots of great filling recipes on www.ladycakes.com I have made the raspberry filling and it turned out great. Hope this helps. icon_smile.gif

Go to country kitchen you can purchase over pastry filling from them, they have the best prices I have seen except for cream cheese I buy that else where. You can choose from over 14 types of filling. Raspberry $2.60, lemon $1.95, apple $2.85, banana cream $2.25
