Cream cheese, chocolate, fresh raspberries, Nutella, Nutella frosting and more. It is the love actually. Not the movie, but the baking dessert. So, let me tell you a little story about this cake beaty.

I called it Raspberry Cake Nutella Frosting. This recipe is using different cake base. The cheese filling is the same and there is an addition called Nutella frosting.
And the Nutella frosting is something you want to try and share. In order to make sharing possible we need to start with shopping which requires…

Place the bottom layer of the cake to a plate.
Important: You can make this birthday cake using 2 or 3 layers.
Add Nutella filling, second layer cake, Nutella filling and then add the third layer of the ferrero rocher cake. Return to fridge until filling is set. (see note below why is this important)
Note: At this point, I find it is important to chill the cake before continuing to help the Nutella filling firm up. Usually, 30 minutes is enough.
Keep going until you use all mini cakes you have from 16 by 12 inches size.
Important: Keep all your mini cakes in the fridge until you are ready for chocolate icing.
EASY RECIPE CHOCOLATE ICING
BTW, you are almost done.
You just need to pour the best chocolate glaze over the cakes.
Then decorate with Nutella bombs, cappuccino bombs, shaved chocolate, ground hazelnuts, icing sugar and my favorite candies. Ferrero Rocher Candies!

Eggs – to make yellow, sunshine cake you need to use large, organic eggs. This is the most important ingredient for the cake. (we don’t use food coloring)
Heavy Cream – use 33% or 35% . Please don’t use half and half. You need heavy cream with 33% or higher.
Butter – use unsalted butter, room temperature. The organic butter is very expensive. Use if you can. If you can’t use the best one you can buy.
