What if you can’t find Mascarpone anywhere?!?
A while back I was making a cake with a mascarpone buttercream and realized mine had expired! I didn’t have time to go to the market so I followed Nigella’s advice for a reasonable facsimile and mixed the following ingredients together until combined. Make sure they are all at room temperature!
8oz cream cheese 1/4 cup heavy cream 2 tbs unsalted butter
Not exactly mascarpone but it will do in a pinch!
I added some Queen Anne’s Lace flowers to my crown of blackberries for some extra contrast and dimension. They’re beautiful, and edible but taste horrible so remove them before eating, or use a better tasting flower as your garnish. Also can we talk about that drip??? If your curd is a bit thick just whisk in some blackberry juice until you get the desired consistency. If you’ve tried this cake don’t forget to rate the recipe and let me know how you got on in the comments below, I love hearing from you!
