Fresh Berry Chantilly Cake is a delicious vanilla sponge cake layered with fresh berries and topped with mouth watering mascarpone chantilly cream.
Spring is here, and we are baking with fresh berries every chance we get! We love chocolate cake and all, but this is the time of year for light and airy desserts. The vanilla sponge cake has just the right balance of lightness and perfectly sweet. The berry filling brings an energizing brightness, and it all comes together with the most amazing Chantilly cream. You don’t want to miss this one.
Cooking Lesson: Chantilly cream may sound fancy, but it is simply sweetened whipped cream, usually made with heavy or double cream. Vanilla is traditionally used, but depending on the recipe, other flavorings may be added.
Fresh or Frozen Berries?
Fresh berries are preferable, but if you don’t have fresh berries available to you, you can substitute with frozen. Make sure to thaw the berries completely first, and blot off all excess moisture before assembling them into the cake.
Storage Instructions:
Chantilly cream is delicate and so are berries. This cake needs to be stored in the refrigerator and will keep for up to 72 hours. Once you slice into the cake you can place plastic wrap against the exposed to cake to prevent the cake from drying out.
Pan Options for Fresh Berry Chantilly Cake:
You can use almost any size or style pan. Different sizes will require slight changes to the baking time and you will also need to make sure you have enough frosting on hand.

So delicately sweet and delightful summer time dessert. Refrigerated mine and served cold. Just yummy !!!
Try this recipe! It was so easy to follow and our cake came out delicious!
My biggest regret was not allowing the cheeses to completely warm up because they didn’t mix well into the whipped cream (or perhaps I didn’t mix well enough) , but it still tasted Amazing, and now one could tell except for me.
I made this for a friend for a special occasion, and it was so good and so special. I didn’t have mascarpone cheese, so I just doubled my cream cheese. Didn’t end up using nearly all the jam, and it was still sweet and good. I tend to like my cakes/desert on the less sweet side. I did 1/4 cup less sugar as well for this reason. But other than that, I followed the recipe exactly and it was just fresh, moist, yummy. It presents so well as well. I’ve made the “the most amazing chocolate cake” on this website before which was just to my taste and will be my go to chocolate cake recipe. Two cake recipe successes so far!
This was amazing!! By far my favorite new cake! The whole party loved it. Easy to follow and deeeee-licious!!!
OMG, I’m 🤤 just by reading the ingredients 😅!! I’ll be making this soon.
Thank You, ❤️
I just finished making this scrumptious cake. One of the best I have ever tasted. Followed the recipe exactly. It makes a great cake for the warmer months. Yes, it does take some prepping but the final results were amazing. I filled the inside with strawberries and decorated it with strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. I will definitely make another one for the 4th of July which is my grandsons birthday. The tart and sweet compliment each other. Thank you for a great recipe. I’m really not into baking but it looked so good and just had to try my hand with it. Turned out way better than I could of ever imagined for a first time baker. So proud of myself.
I absolutely love going through your recipe’s. I have tried many and especially love the video and how simple you help us get it correctly. You are a blessing. I’m going to give this one a try for my tea. Thanks for all you do
I’m in the process of making it as I type this. Tasted the cake and the cream separately. Both are so delicious. Putting the berries together. Using strawberries on the inside and raspberries and blackberries on top for decorating. Never made a homemade cake in my life. If all turns out well I will post a photo when finished.
It just melts in your mouth like a cream cheese delight..mm mmm good
I’m in! I have been searching for a long time for a Publix Chantilly cake recipe with no success. Thank you. I will be making very soon!!
Whole Foods sells 2 sizes of this cake and it is the best cake I’ve ever had.
I have not tasted it, but I know it is as delicious as it looks! I may not have the same taste, but you do so well what ever you do ! Thank you!
