This recipe offers a perfect balance of sweetness and texture, making it a wonderful treat for any occasion. Below is a step-by-step guide to creating this elegant and delicious cake.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
60g
1/3 cup powdered sugar
55g
6 egg whites
200g
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2g
1 cup heavy whipping cream
230g
1/2 cup white chocolate
120g
1 tbsp gelatin powder
16g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Flour Mixture:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose white wheat flour and powdered sugar. Set aside.
2. Beat Egg Whites:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed until they start to form soft peaks.
- Gradually add in the vanilla extract while continuing to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
3. Fold in Flour Mixture:
- Gently fold the sifted flour mixture into the beaten egg whites using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix to keep the batter light and airy.
4. Bake the Angel Cake:
- Pour the batter into an ungreased angel food cake pan or a Bundt pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from oven and let the cake cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, gently remove the cake from the pan and place it on a serving platter.
5. Prepare the Strawberry Mousse:
- In a small bowl, dissolve the gelatin powder in 2 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.
- In the meantime, melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler until smooth.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the melted white chocolate into the whipped cream.
- Heat the bloomed gelatin in the microwave for about 10 seconds or until it's liquid. Gradually pour the gelatin into the whipped cream mixture, folding it in gently until well combined.
6. Assemble the Cake:
- If desired, slice the angel food cake horizontally to create two layers.
- Spread a generous amount of the strawberry mousse over the bottom layer. Place the top layer back on and cover the entire cake with the remaining mousse.
- Chill the assembled cake in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set the mousse.
7. Garnish and Serve:
- Before serving, garnish the cake with fresh strawberries and a light dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
- Slice and enjoy your delightful Strawberry Mousse Angel Cake!

Tips:

- Make sure to sift the flour and powdered sugar to ensure the angel cake stays light and airy.

- Use room temperature egg whites for easier whisking and better volume.

- Chill the mixing bowl and beaters before whipping the cream for best results.

- Fold the ingredients gently to maintain the airy texture of the mousse.

- Refrigerate the cake for a few hours or overnight to allow the mousse to set properly.
