Ingredients

either buy a ready-made three-layered spong cake (I did) or bake your own sponge cake in a 10" spring form

cut it twice horizontally to obtain three layers

2 baskets of strawberries (two pounds)

2 tablespoonsGrand Marnier, about

1 tub Mascarpone

1 tub whipping cream

2 TBSP. whole milk

1 package whipping cream stabilizer

1 can cream of coconut

2 TBSP confectioners sugar, approx.

1 package Raffaelos, chilled

for decoration,

12 of the prettiest strawberries

or chocolate leaves

some fresh green pepper corns (i get them out of the glass) - VERY optional :-)

Directions

sprinkle bottom layer withorange liqueur, i used Grand Marnier

beat mascarpone with milk,sugar, the whipping cream and the cream of coconut, the wh.cream stabilizer

spread on bottom layer

put strawberries (halved if VERY large) on perimeter,

then add one 'circle'of halved Raffaelos

(that is SOME job, believe me, but it is easier when Raffaelos are well chilled),

add another 'circle' of strawberries,

then some more Raffaelos if there is room

cover with another layer of sponge cake

sprinkle this layer with Grand Marnier,

proceed as before,

put on the third layer, covering it with the cream,

then cover the sides of the cake with the cream mixture as well

now decorate with the whole strawberries,

chocolate leaves and,

if you like (I did)

make a short make-believe stem with the green peppercorns.

cool and fridge for about wo hours before serving

i was told it was some flavour-experience to have the strawberries and cream and one pepeprcorn in the mouth!

you may want to hide some of the green pepper in one of the layers - SURPRISE!
