Treat yourself to a delicious dessert with an intriguing combination of flavours. Topped with juicy, red strawberries, this mouthwatering pistachio cake with mascarpone cream will capture your heart. Each slice is an explosion of delectable flavours. You'll love the soft texture and delicate, nutty flavour of the pistachios. The cake is finished off with a delicious mascarpone cream – this airy, velvety, creamy and sweet concoction envelops the cake like a cloud. The strawberries can be fresh or roasted and the resulting sauce will add a special touch to the dessert. This cake should be kept in the fridge so that the cream stays fresh. As this recipe uses a lot of butter, it's important to take the cake out of the fridge several hours prior to eating so that the cream becomes as light as a cloud once more.
