1

Whip up the mousse

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of heavy cream, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip, you don't want to cross the line from whimsy to stiff!

2

Layer it up

Take your favorite cake base (we recommend a light sponge cake) and cut it into two layers. Place one layer at the bottom of your cake mold and pour half of the mousse mixture on top. Gently spread it out with a spatula and repeat with the second layer and remaining mousse. Give it a little dance to settle the mousse into place.

3

Chill like a villain

Pop your cake mold into the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight if you want the whimsy to reach its full potential. This step requires patience, but it's totally worth it!
