Cake without baking with gelatin sour cream and fruit

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make a cake with gelatin, sour cream and fruit? Prepare all ingredients. I use nectarine, kiwi, strawberries and grapes. But fruits can be any that do not lose their appearance after cutting. Bananas, apples and pears - just by. The recipe specifies the weight of already peeled fruits and berries. I have 10% sour cream, but the fatter it is, the tastier and calorific the cake will turn out. I baked the biscuit myself in advance, but ready-made cakes or even sugar cookies will do.

2. Step 2:

   

   Fill gelatin with filtered water and leave to swell for 30 minutes.

3. Step 3:

   

   During this time, cut the biscuit into pieces of arbitrary shape of medium size. It can be a little thinner than mine in the photo, because my biscuit turned out to be a little dry. I was afraid to soak it, I thought that the cake might leak. But in the general mass, the dryness of the biscuit does not play a special role, because the cake itself will be juicy.

4. Step 4:

   

   Wash fruits and berries under running water and free them from twigs, stems, peel and seeds, if necessary. This also applies to grapes :)

5. Step 5:

   

   Take a deep bowl, which we will use as a cake mold, and cover it with cling film in two layers, criss-cross. In a bowl, distribute the fruits and pieces of sponge cake, alternating them with each other as your imagination tells you. Cover the bowl and set aside for a while.

7. Step 6:

   

   Let's do the filling. In a separate bowl, combine the sour cream and sugar and beat with a mixer for 5 minutes until all the sugar has dissolved.

8. Step 7:

   

   Transfer the swollen gelatin to a small saucepan and bring it over low heat to a state where all the grains dissolve. Remember that if gelatin boils, it will begin to lose its gelling properties. Let the gelatin cool for 2-3 minutes, but do not freeze!

9. Step 8:

   

   Pour all the gelatin in a thin stream into the sour cream mixture and mix thoroughly with a whisk. The fill is ready!

10. Step 9:

    

    It remains only to pour it into a bowl on top of the fruit. Leave the cake at room temperature to cool completely, and then tighten the top with cling film and put the bowl in the refrigerator overnight to stabilize.

11. Step 10:

    

    It is convenient to get the cake like this: remove the top film, cover the bowl with the cake with a serving plate and turn this design over. Due to the fact that the bowl was populated with cling film, the cake will easily slip out. Carefully free it from the remnants of the film and decorate as desired. Although he is already very handsome!
