Which cream is good for biscuit cakes. What cream to cook for biscuit cakes

- which one to choose, because there are so many of them? And how to do it for sure ?! We will help you choose and teach you how to cook!

Hello everybody! Those who are just starting to make cakes often ask me: “What kind of cream is suitable for this biscuit? What do you recommend? " So, to make it easier for everyone, I decided to create this article, and, of course, not all of them can be described here, but many creams that go well with biscuit cakes.

What kind of cream should be in order to "go well" with a biscuit? Based on my experience, I will say: it must be quite stable in order to confidently keep inside. Too liquid cream will flow out under the weight of the cakes, especially if they are heavy, well-soaked, or cooked in natural butter, with chocolate, etc. However, the cream for the layer should not be too dense (as for leveling), otherwise it will be dry and, perhaps not gentle enough. The golden mean is what we need!)

All recipes, as always, have been repeatedly checked by me personally, as well as by the readers of the site. They are guaranteed to work. However, the taste of the creams, of course, are different, and I will try to describe the features of each as objectively as possible, so that you can imagine as clearly as possible what you will get, and do right choice... After all, to each his own.

So let's go!

Cream Cheese, or Cheese Cream

There are, roughly speaking, two cream cheese: and. For the filling, inside the cake, I recommend using. better for leveling the cake: in general, both of these creams are stable, but stronger in butter.

Today, cream cheese is one of the most beloved creams by both confectioners and their customers. He's really good. He obediently behaves in cakes, goes well with fruits, berries, caramel, condensed milk and any other additives. Quick and easy to prepare. There are a million proportions. It seems that there are as many proportions as there are confectioners) Those that I use are. But you can put in more cream, and also play with the amount of powdered sugar.

If you have never tried cream cheese, then I must warn you: the taste of the cream has a slight salty tint due to the actual cheese from which it is made. Many people really like this taste: salt, as it were, emphasizes the sweetness of everything else, it sounds very piquant) Unusual, surprising, fresh, if you like. But for some it is so unusual that it causes rejection. Therefore, cream cheese has both ardent fans and opponents, those who absolutely do not like it. If you have tried a cheesecake, in a cafe or at a party, but real, on cheese, and not on cottage cheese, then the taste of cream cheese will be familiar to you.

As for the cheese. Of course, for cream cheese, not "Russian", not "Poshekhonskiy", not "Yantar" cheese, and not even "Omichka" are used, but cottage cheese like Philadelphia. True, this particular brand cannot be found in Russia today, and confectioners take available analogues: Hochland, Violetta, Kremette, Kaymak, etc. This is not processed cheese! This is curd cheese, cream cheese, that is, without additives like dill, tomatoes, etc. Someone does it with ricotta, but, as for me, this is something else, not cream cheese. Yes, curd cheese from different manufacturers is slightly different from each other in consistency, degree of salinity, color and other characteristics, so you may have to try several different cheeses to choose the most suitable one for you.

You can also add a few tablespoons of fruit or berry puree, good cocoa powder, melted chocolate, or chocolate chips... You will have a new cream) Do not overdo it: two or three tbsp. l. will be sufficient.

Cream mascarpone

Another wonderful cream, and also based on cheese, however, now it is mascarpone. As you know, its taste is delicate, delicate, extremely creamy. This cheese is not salty, but rather, on the contrary, slightly sweetish, closer to neutral. So with him it turns out to be the most delicate and super creamy! I love it very much and can recommend it with a clear conscience. In the cake, the cream behaves well, especially if you collect the cake in a ring and leave it to stabilize overnight. However, I recommend collecting all the cakes only in a ring and be sure to give time to settle, at least a few hours, or better - overnight.

The main rule for preparing this cream is that cheese and cream should be directly from the refrigerator! Otherwise, the cream may exfoliate. In the same way as in the previous case, you can add fruit- berry puree, the berries themselves or pieces of fruit, various syrups, nuts (better caramelized, they will crunch better), melted chocolate, chocolate chips or cocoa powder. Experiment!

But keep in mind, it is better to slightly boil the mashed potatoes with sugar and cool, and only then add to the cream, so it will be safer and the cream, and with it the cake will acquire a longer shelf life. Raw berries and fruits turn sour inside the cake rather quickly, so if you put them, then keep in mind that the cake will need to be eaten as soon as it is infused, that is, literally in a few hours! Better yet, put canned fruit or boil fresh fruit with sugar for just a few minutes, cool it down and only then use it for the cake.

Sour cream

Another great cream for your biscuit cakes!

It is very easy to make it, but you need to prepare: there must be sour cream! Only with such sour cream will the cream turn out to be strong, stable and will hold perfectly inside the cake. If you use ordinary sour cream, unweighted, even with a high fat content (in our stores, the maximum is 30%), the cream will be liquid and can only be used for cakes with a large number of thin cakes such as or. Such a cream will not stay between biscuit cakes. But on the basis of weighed sour cream, the cream turns out, although tender, but for biscuit cake quite appropriate. Moreover, you remember: you need to collect the cake in a ring and give it time to infuse in the refrigerator for at least several hours. During this time, the cream will get stronger and will not go anywhere.

Cream Sundae

It was under this name that I once found this cream. This is exactly how I remembered, wrote down, tested and later published here. Out of habit. But in fact, a more accurate name is sour cream and custard. Why am I focusing on this? The fact is that, judging from my blogging experience, not everyone resembles an ice cream sundae (and I do not want your expectations to be deceived), which, of course, does not in the least detract from its other merits. And there are really a lot of them! Thanks to the decent amount of butter, the cream is stable enough both for the filling of the cake and for the outer coating. It can be used for both multilayer cake type of honey cake, and for biscuit, suitable for both vanilla cakes and chocolate, combined with any additives. The taste of sour cream is quite palpable, as is the taste of butter, so all products must be of the highest quality! No spreads, margarines or cheap "butter-like" products, no sour cream products, only natural, fresh ingredients. As much as you can find.

A detailed recipe and cooking technology with a photo -.

Charlotte cream

But this cream is already a real oil. But for oil it is very good! Of course, if you use only high-quality products and, first of all, real butter, and not margarine or an incomprehensible product on which butter is written, but in fact it is something creepy with an oil smell.

Charlotte cream is a Soviet heritage, it was used in many confectionery products of those years, for example, in the famous one. But you can, of course, use it for other cakes, those that you come up with yourself.

Why is any butter cream so attractive? It sets very quickly in the refrigerator, and the cake with it turns out to be strong, which is very good for transporting and creating complex structures, the so-called 3D cakes. If you noticed, American and Australian pastry chefs almost always use butter cream for the layer of cakes, albeit another, not Charlotte. Firstly, apparently, they are so tasty, and in general - it is so accepted, and secondly, it is really convenient to work with butter cream: the cake is assembled quickly and even without a ring, it does not have to be insisted, there is practically no shrinkage, it was kept in the refrigerator for an hour and can be leveled.

And he has one minus, but significant: not everyone likes this cream, it is still too greasy. And if we talk specifically about Charlotte, and sweet too. However, according to my observations, lovers of that old, Soviet pastry are simply delighted with it!

Tip: be sure to put in the cognac! Just believe it: it will be much tastier and more aromatic.

Butter cream on Swiss merengue

This cream, of course, is more suitable for flattening cakes, but, as I already wrote, if for some reason you want to use butter cream for the filling of the cake, then you can easily take this one. It tastes like butter cream, and that says it all. However, you can add cocoa powder or berry puree to it, it will be more interesting. And yet, do not neglect cognac, the taste of the cream will benefit greatly from this, and the shelf life so you slightly increase.

Chocolate ganache

One of my favorite creams, if, of course, you can call it that, because the word "filling" is more appropriate. After all, you can fill anything with ganache: cake, cupcakes, pasta cakes and any other cakes, sweets, etc. Ganache can also be used to level the cake. It's all about the proportions, for each type of product and the chocolate itself, they will be different.

I'm already talking about ganache. Although the article was written a long time ago, I still completely agree with it, the main thing is true. But the proportions - I repeat! - will differ depending on what exactly we are preparing. You can generally invent your own, in which the ganache will completely suit you in taste, texture and behavior. The main thing to remember is that the more cream and less chocolate, the less strong the ganache will be. For leveling, a stronger ganache is needed, for the filling, accordingly, a more tender one is suitable.

For example, to at least be guided by something. Inside the cake I can advise, 1: 1 for milk chocolate, 1: 1.5 (chocolate-cream) for dark and 1.5: 1 for white. This is for relatively dense fillings. In fact, you can take a lot, but significantly less chocolate! Just whisk well then! Then, rather, it will not be ganache already, but cream, stabilized with chocolate, they will be tender with a light chocolate flavor... Less strong, of course, but very tasty, as I like to say - like melted ice cream. But it all depends on what else you have in the cake, how sweet and dense your cakes are, etc. Therefore, do not take these words for truth, just experiment!) After all, if you set out to invent your own cake, then you need to be ready to samples and to the fact that you will not immediately find your ideal ratios between the components!

Well, and one more piece of advice, or rather a rule: be sure to let the ganache brew in the refrigerator for several hours. So, by the way, you will see how it will be in the cake. If it's too dense, you can add cream and a little butter (it will add plasticity).

That's it for today!)

I think you can already choose from this list cream for sponge cake that suits you!

Merengi, albeit stable, it seems, I do not recommend using for cake filling. Who does not know, this is just a name so interesting, in fact, it is well known to us protein custard... It is still rather dry to be inside the cake, it is good to use it for decoration.

However, there are many more creams that are great for a sponge cake, and I will definitely talk about them in one of my next articles.

Preheat the oven to 150 degrees, put a baking sheet with nuts in it for 8-10 minutes. The nuts should dry out, but should not change their beautiful green color!
