Our next sumptuous cake is from the lovely Sheree – View from the Back, who is a spectacular cook and baker and regularly publishes posts featuring the outstanding the cuisine of France.
Sheree’s cake had three layers of genoise sponge soaked in Framboise liqueur. It was filled with rich chocolate meringue butter cream and topped with fresh raspberries and surrounded by chocolate curls.
This spectacular cake was baked for the celebrations of a 6oth Birthday fro one of Sheree’s clubmates. Have a look at Sheree’s own wonderful BAKE-OFF post to read more about her creation:

Here is to everything the French have brought to our plates and to baking!

Isn’t it a delight! I meant to ask Sheree if it was dark chocolate . I am going to have to try something like this because the thought of chocolate and raspberries has completely captivated me now.
