Raspberry Cake Filling

sugar ((65 grams))

cornstarch

raspberries (8 ounces (226 grams))

water

lemon juice (optional, but recommended

Combine sugar and cornstarch in small saucepan and whisk until combined.

Add raspberries, water, and lemon juice and stir together until all ingredients are combined.

Turn stovetop heat to medium (Important! don’t increase the heat above this, you want everything to heat slowly so the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens properly) and cook, stirring almost constantly, until berries release their juices and mixture begins to bubble (it usually takes about 7 minutes for my mixture to begin to bubble).

Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until thickened (this usually takes me about 2 minutes). Remember that the filling will continue to thicken as it cools, you don’t want it to become pasty in the saucepan or it will be too thick after cooling

Transfer to a heatproof container and allow to cool to room temperature before spreading over cake. If not using immediately, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. If mixture is too thick to spread over cake after refrigerating, briefly heat it in the microwave for several seconds until it is a spreadable consistency.

I made this for my adult daughter’s birthday. She requested raspberries and almond with a light frosting so this fit the bill! We all loved it. The only thing I wasn’t sure of was how many holes to poke. The condensed milk seemed to fill the holes and the raspberry purée seemed to stay mostly on top. But it was delicious! 

This raspberry cake filling is the perfect consistency, and is packed with that delicious tart raspberry flavor! It&#x27;s sure to elevate any dessert!! It&#x27;s great inside of cakes, cupcakes, and even cookies.

sugar ((100 grams))

lemon juice

Combine raspberries and sugar in a medium saucepan.

Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the raspberries release their juices and break down, about 8-10 minutes.

In a small, separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, lemon juice, and water to create a slurry. Add to the raspberry mixture while stirring and continue to cook another 1-2 minutes until thickened and goes from cloudy to clear. The filling will continue to thicken as it cools, so it shouldn&#39;t be too thick and paste-like in the pan.

Remove from heat and cool completely before using to fill a cake.

Using fresh or frozen raspberries and just 5 other ingredients, this raspberry cake filling comes together in less than 15 minutes. Make it in advance so it has time to cool completely before assembling your cake. For best results, I recommend spreading a layer of frosting on your cake layer, piping a frosting dam around the edge, and then spreading the raspberry filling inside the frosting border. See above for a visual.

(67 grams) granulated sugar

vanilla extract

Whisk the cornstarch and water together until all the cornstarch has dissolved. (I just use a fork to mix—very easy.) Combine cornstarch mixture, raspberries (no need to thaw if using frozen), granulated sugar, and lemon juice in a medium saucepan set over medium heat. Using a silicone spatula, stir the mixture, mashing the raspberries as they begin to thaw and soften.

Bring to a boil and let it boil for 5 full minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove pan from heat and stir in vanilla extract.

Allow the raspberry filling to cool at room temperature for 10–15 minutes, then transfer it to a bowl or container and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours and up to 1 week (the longer, the better). No need to cover it; but if refrigerating for longer than 4 hours, cover tightly. It will continue to thicken up as it chills. Raspberry filling must be completely cooled before using in your cake. If freezing, see Note below for instructions.

To fill cake: You can use the completely cooled and thickened raspberry filling to fill a 2-layer or 3-layer cake. You&#8217;ll have the most success with this raspberry filling if you partner it with some frosting filling; it really needs a buttercream base layer to keep the cake layers stable. Spread a thin layer of buttercream/frosting on your cake layers, to work as the sturdy base for your raspberry filling. Doesn&#8217;t need to be much; just a thin layer. You also need a buttercream &#8220;dam&#8221; around the cake layers to keep the jammy raspberry filling inside the cake layers. Spoon some buttercream into a piping bag fitted with a large round tip, such as Wilton 2A. Pipe a border around the cake. Then, spread the raspberry filling inside the buttercream border. An offset spatula is helpful for spreading. Assemble next cake layer on top, and repeat. For a 3-layer 8-inch or 9-inch cake, use a heaping 1/2 cup between each layer. For a 2-layer 8-inch or 9-inch cake, use about 3/4 cup filling; you&#8217;ll have some left over. See Note below for other cake sizes.

To fill cupcakes

With a sharp knife, cut a circle in a cooled cupcake, and remove the center, which will be roughly the shape of a cone. Using a small spoon, fill the middle of the cupcake with as much raspberry filling as you can. (Usually between 1–2 teaspoons.) Slice/tear off the pointed tip of the cone-shaped piece of cupcake, and gently press the round piece back on top of the filling. Repeat with remaining cupcakes. Makes enough filling to fill 2 dozen cupcakes. Or fill 1 dozen, and have some filling left over.

Cake or cupcakes filled with raspberry filling and topped with buttercream are typically fine covered at room temperature for 1 day. Cover and store in the refrigerator after that.

I made this raspberry filling for your 3 layer lemon cake (one of my favourites). The frosting "dam" broke at one part on the lower layer and the jam leaked out a bit. I think next time I will use buttercream instead of the cream cheese buttercream for extra stability in the jam layer. The cake was a huge hit at the party, thank you! I think the seeds are pretty noticeable but also this adds to the raspberry-ness of the experience. Especially great to get a strong flavour using frozen raspberries when they are out of season. Will definitely make again, thank you :-)

Sally your recipes are awesome, and great way you explain is simple and without flaws. Thankyou you're the best. God bless those hands.
