  • Also line the bottom of the mold with soaked ladyfingers.
  • Break the milk chocolate into pieces, transfer to a heatproof bowl, add butter, and place the bowl over a pot of boiling water – so that the bowl does not touch the surface of the water.

If you want the cake to be more stable, you can add gelatin to the chocolate mousse. Pour cold water over a heaping teaspoon of gelatin – just enough to cover the gelatin. When it swells, heat it briefly, add about a tablespoon of chocolate mousse and mix. Pour the prepared gelatin into the mousse and mix thoroughly.

chocolate cake with peaches

What is Charlotte cake?

Charlotte is a cake originating from French cuisine. It is characterized by elongated ladyfingers, which line the sides of the cake. Inside, there is usually a delicate mousse with fruit.

I prepared a chocolate-peach charlotte for you. With a delicate chocolate mousse and the addition of peaches and passion fruit, and with whipped cream. It turned out to be a great, refreshing and very delicate dessert :) I unnecessarily put passion fruit on top for the photos – the cake is so light that it bent slightly under the weight of the fruit. But luckily, it didn’t spoil the taste!

What ingredients are needed for Charlotte?

Charlotte is a no-bake cake prepared with ladyfingers. For my Charlotte cake, I used elongated ladyfingers, the same as for tiramisu, which you can easily buy at Biedronka or Lidl. For the chocolate mousse for the cake, you will need milk chocolate and eggs. To ensure that raw eggs do not harm the mousse, it is good to pour boiling water over them. Then separate the yolks from the whites and add them separately to the melted chocolate. First, add the yolks to the chocolate, and then the whites beaten into a thick foam. This will create a nice and fluffy chocolate mousse.

In addition to the chocolate mousse, I decorated the top of the Charlotte with whipped cream. Here I mixed 30% whipping cream from a carton with powdered sugar. Spread the thick whipped cream on top of the Charlotte cake and decorate with fruit in jelly. The chocolate-peach Charlotte now needs to be chilled in the refrigerator.

Before serving, carefully unclip the springform pan and serve the cake.

Charlotte is not particularly difficult to prepare, so give it a try – it will surely impress your household members :)

I also encourage you to try other recipes for cakes with cream.
