I created this after falling in love with Rousse’s Gentilly Cake . Their whipped frosting that is served on this cake is rich and has almost a wedding cake vibe. This is why I chose to flavor this with almond and not a traditional vanilla. I loved it so much I was inspired to make my own Gentilly Cake ..this is one epic cake.

Mascarpone Cheese???

What the heck is mascarpone cheese and where do you buy it? Mascarpone cheese is an italian cream cheese . It has a higher fat content than traditional american cream cheese and this makes it super creamy. This type of cheese is pretty easy to find now , it is usually in the deli section of major grocery store chain along with the fancy cheeses. At our Kroger it is grouped with the Italian cheeses while at wal-mart is is next to hummus . So,if your aren’t sure using a store app is always easy or asking someone. Trust me , once you make this Mascarpone whipped cream you will always remember where to find it.

ENJOY!!
