INGREDIENTS 600ml thickened cream 500g good-quality mascarpone cheese ⅓ cup pure icing sugar, sifted 1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped 3 mangoes, flesh sliced 1cm thick Juice of 2 oranges ½ cup (125ml) Grand Marnier 300g savoiardi (sponge finger biscuits) RASPBERRY SAUCE ¼ cup (55g) caster sugar 250g fresh or frozen raspberries Juice of 1 lemon METHOD 1. Line the base of a 22 cm springform cake pan with plastic wrap or baking paper, leaving 2 cm overhanging. 2. Place the thickened cream, mascarpone, icing sugar, and vanilla seeds in a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and whisk on high speed until stiff and well combined. Chill until needed. 3. Combine the orange juice and Grand Marnier in a separate bowl. Dip half the sponge fingers into the juice mixture and layer in the base of the prepared pan. Spread with one-third of the mascarpone mixture, and top with one- third of the mango slices. Repeat the process, then top with the remaining mascarpone mixture, reserving the remaining mango slices to serve. Cover the cake and chill for 2 hours or until firm. 4. To make the raspberry sauce, place the sugar and 2 tbsp. water in a small pan over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Add the berries and lemon juice, crushing the berries slightly. Stand to cool completely. Pass through a sieve set over a bowl and chill until ready to serve. Note: You can store the sauce covered in the fridge for 3-4 days. 5. To serve, carefully remove the sides and base of the cake pan and transfer the Mangomisu to a platter. Decorate with curls of the reserved mango, then slice and serve with the raspberry sauce.
