The marriage of fresh raspberries and basil is perfect! The cake itself is rich and moist, yet still feels light. Made even more special with a cream-cheese buttercream, delicately scented with lemon and vanilla. Perfect for breafast, brunch, or afternoon tea!

This is a beautiful dessert to serve after a rich meal because the sponge cake and meringue are very light. The preparation itself is simple. The meringue is the longest to cook – but you can prepare everything ahead of time & assemble the torte just prior to serving, so it’s a perfect dessert for entertaining ♥
