Amazing Berry Chantilly Cake Recipe

[@Marleneq131]

I worked at Whole Foods bakery for 6 years and this is how we made our berry Chantilly frosting 8oz room temp cream cheese 8oz room temp mascarpone 2 cups of heavy whipping cream 1 1/2 cups of powder sugar 1 tsp of almond extract Mix the cream cheese and mascarpone cheese until combined add the powdered sugar and mix until incorporated and finally add the heavy whipping cream and almond extract on low and then speed it up to medium high speed until light and fluffy careful not to over whip it or it’ll be grainy. And that’s it you have the Whole Foods Chantilly frosting ☺️☺️

[@bashiramina7668]

Thank you so much, I can’t wait to make it. Is the cake recipe he used similar to that of Whole Foods?

[@ally_schmally]

Thank you!!!

[@Marleneq131]

It’s a lot to ask. But could you make a blog or KZbin channel for Whole Foods recipes lol. I’m joking but kind of serious

[@perlan3532]

I also used to work at WF bakery production years ago and I forgot the ratios. Thank you for this comment 🤩

[@allgirlreview433]

UPDATE: I made this this morning and I would recommend putting the icing mix in the fridge to firm up for 30 minutes. Mine was VERY soft and weepy. Still it was delicious. Thank you so much. A friend's birthday is tomorrow and this is a perfect summer birthday cake!

[@melaniew323]

I made the cake also and had the same result. The frosting was too runny at first. I had to do a crumb coat, then put the remaining frosting and the cake in the refrigerator, then finish up. Still, I couldn’t get the smooth finish like John did, but the cake was still very impressive and looked and tasted fabulous.

[@NurCak]

My frosting melted (even after 30 mins in the fridge) so I didnt use it for the covering. I made a different frosting to cover the cake.

[@allgirlreview433]

@@NurCak I have now been recommended to add a small amount of clear gelatin to the frosting. I hope ths helps.

[@afab6427]

For this type of frosting, I always add some instant vanilla pudding to help stiffen it up -- works like a charm. For me, the sugar free stuff works best

I made this for a co-worker's wedding 2 years ago and everyone loved it. I had to practice getting the layers just right. And it was my first attempt at making a naked cake. Talk about challenging. btw, Whole Foods makes this cake and it's delicious but I think homemade is best.

We are having excessive heat warnings where we live, (heat indexes to 115) and this cake is the perfect, light, fluffy and cool antidote. Thanks, John!!!!💞💞💞

My husband went out grocery shopping today so he can get me all ingredients for this cake and I made this today. Omg John! He enjoy eating it and almost have eaten half of the cake I made. Your Chantilly cake recipe is so decadent, soft creamy frosting and the cake flour made the cake so fluffy and light! Amazing! Thank you for this recipe.

[@j.jcevering5117]

Made this upon request from my granddaughter for her princess 5th bday party. It was the most delicious and prettiest cake I've ever done. It was downed almost immediately. I'm going to need to go much bigger (pans) and double the berries for next time. They want it for Thanksgiving and Christmas now. I guess we have a new tradition and it's one I'd never heard of. She gave me her request and I put that in the search. I'm sure glad you had one available. It was a BIG HIT!! Thank you. P.s. I enjoy your singing, I too make up sings while in the kitchen. Now, on to more deliciousness. 💛🎼🎶🎵🎶

This lovely cake combines a nice buttery yellow cake, berries and whipped cream, all early summer standards, but this is a prettier and more elegant presentation than a typical strawberry shortcake. Thank you John!

So delicious! I just purchased all these i ingredients for a fruit tart & angel foo cake... Should I make this instead??? 🤔 🍰

[@adrianasinc8939]

I made this yesterday as listed minus 2 cups of the icing sugar. It turned out pretty awesome. There was just enough icing for covering a 1" @ 4 layer cake. Changes: 1 cup icing sugar instead of 3 per John's recipe BUT added 2 g gelatin to compensate. I bloomed the gelatin in 73 g cream them microwaved it carefully for about 20 seconds to melt it and make the cream steam. I then whipped the cream/gelatin mixture until soft pudding consistency and added it into the cheese mixture and then whipped the cheese mixture for a quick 30 seconds. Added the rest of the whipped cream exactly as per John's instructions. Used the whole tub of mascarpone cream 475 g vs only 450 per John's recipe. Because it had less sugar- I specifically hunted for sweet fruit- green grapes, mangoes, lychee, strawberries. I hit the jackpot. A kind shopper at the grocery store gave me the idea of canned mangoes in syrup because the fresh ones were not ripe enough. Also used Canned lychee in syrup and fresh strawberries. Too bad I can't add pictures. It was beautiful gluten-free Chantilly cake! I hope my coworkers find the cake sweet enough and the intended recipient finds it not too sweet as requested. Just like John said that mascarpone is like condensed whipped cream- I was going for a whipped cream taste. Yummm

[@adrianasinc8939]

Update: The cake was a success! No leftovers! Based on comments on this channel about cakes melting - I inserted 2 large bubble tea straws as posts to stabilize the cake- a good move since the cake was at room temp at least 30 min for cutting and the cream was soft and airy.

[@MsBeliever316]

I wish I tried it! Sounds delicious!

[@miriamgonzalezmoedano1748]

I made it yesterday for my husband's birthday and everyone loved it. The chantilly frosting was amazing. I used homemade berries jam.

Anothr tip for smoothing a cake, dip your spatula in cold water, shake off the excess (but do not dry it) This will help you smooth and give an almost glossy finish to your fosting. My mother was a cake decorator and this tip has never failed me

[@hemicardia935]

I just made this for my baby shower and made it a two tier using 9-inch rounds and 6 inch rounds. I discovered that using a half-recipe works perfectly for 2 6 inch rounds. The frosting recipe ended up being the perfect amount to do the whole cake semi-naked. It was a total crowd pleaser, even amongst the guests who weren't cake fans.

Another quick way to soften up your butter/cream cheese? Fill a measuring cup with some water. Microwave for 2 minutes then place butter/cream cheese in the microwave with the cup still in there. The steam will warm it right up. I like to cut them into slices so they get done quicker. Mascarpone? I use the same brand John. I'm a huge cream cheese lover but I never knew how wonderful Mascarpone was until I tried it. It's like cream cheese yet less tangy. So delicious... 😋

Made this cake for my husband’s birthday. I reduced the sugar for the frosting from 3c to 2c since we don’t like it super sweet. I may reduce it a little more next time. The cake itself was a little dry. Overall really good and easy to make. I added 3 macarons on top decorate.
