The Broken Glass Cake with Sour Cream
Beautiful, bright, unusual, spectacular, for any occasion! The Broken Glass Cake with Sour Cream and Jelly is quite simple to prepare, and the result is both stunning in appearance and taste.
Ingredients
Jelly
- 600 ml Water
- 160 g Jelly 40 g of powder for making jelly of different flavors
For the cream
- 600 g Sour cream 20%
- 200 g Sugar
- 180 ml Water
- 25 g Gelatin
- 0.2 g Vanilla sugar pinch
Instructions
- How to make a Broken Glass cake with sour cream and jelly? First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. You can use jelly of any color and flavor. I used orange, mango, kiwi, and cherry jelly. Take thick sour cream, at least 20% fat. You can replace sugar with any suitable sweetener.
- Divide the jelly powder into 4 glasses. While stirring constantly, pour 150 ml of boiling water into each. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved.
- Pour the resulting jelly of different colors into molds and refrigerate for 4-6 hours until it hardens completely. You can also pour the jelly into silicone ice cube trays.
- Then carefully remove the jelly from the molds and cut into small cubes. While making the sour cream base, return the jelly cubes to the refrigerator.
- Now prepare the sour cream base. You can use sour cream with a fat content of 15% or more. The main thing is that the sour cream is not too watery. Keep in mind that this will affect the calorie content of the dish. My sour cream is 20%. You can increase or decrease the amount of sugar to your liking. You can replace vanilla with 1 tbsp of vanilla sugar.
- Pour cold water over the gelatin and leave to swell for 20 minutes. Then dissolve the gelatin over low heat or in the microwave until it dissolves completely. Do not bring it to a boil. Read the instructions on the gelatin package – it may have a different cooking technology. Cool the gelatin slightly.
- Mix sour cream, sugar, and vanilla in a bowl. Leave until the sugar is completely dissolved. With constant intense stirring, pour the gelatin into the sour cream mixture. I whipped the mixture with a mixer at low speed so that the gelatin spreads evenly.
- Put a few colored jelly cubes on the bottom of a silicone baking dish (Ø 20 cm) or in a deep bowl covered with cling film.
- Pour some of the sour cream over the top. Repeat the layers until you’ve used up all the ingredients.
- Put the filled mold in the refrigerator overnight to harden completely.
Before serving, invert the cake onto a plate and release it from the mold. To make it easier to separate the cake from the mold, you can dip the mold in hot water for a few seconds, making sure that the water does not get on the jelly. Cut the Broken Glass cake into slices and serve. Enjoy!
