My Almond Berry Tiara Cake  would be perfect to serve as an Easter or  Mother’s Day dessert.  Baked in a tiara pan, it has Almond Paste in the cake, mascarpone cheese in the filling, topped with fresh berries, and drizzled with a fresh raspberry sauce.

I have a large collection of baking pans, and like using different ones at times when I’m feeling creative.

 

The tiara pans that I have were purchased in the 1980’s, I
believe.  I remember creating so many different cakes and filling the center with pudding, then topping with canned pie filling.  These pans are also called Mary Ann pans.

 

I also have similar pans from Pampered Chef.

As I was looking through my tiara pan recipes, I found one that used almond paste.  I had never used this in baking.

 

Prepare the batter as directed. Spread batter in the prepared pan.  Bake.

 

Invert onto a cooling rack.  My cake did stick a little in a few places.

Prepare the raspberry sauce while cake is cooling.

 

Mix the filling of mascarpone cheese, confectioner sugar and almond extract.  Spread in indented area.

This cake could also be made in a 9-inch round cake pan, or a spring-form pan.

Any type of berries can be used for the sauce also.

  1. Just gorgeous – so impressed. I have one of those pans somewhere and this might be the incentive I need to find it. I remember using it many years ago with the canned pie filling in the cavity that you mentioned. This looks SO much better/fresher.

    1. Isn’t that funny how we used this so many times and then it just got lost in the millions of pans we have. I think my family will like the pudding fillings..I’ll make one this summer for them. Thank you Janice.

    1. Hi Cindy. Seems crazy but this cake really does only use 1/3 cup flour. I looked through several recipes for a Tiara Cake pan and most of them used 1/4 cup of flour. I tried that and could not even get it to stay together after baking. I tried 1/2 cup and it was so dry. I think after 4 or 5 attempts, I used 1/3 cup flour and it worked great. I had never used almond paste before, so maybe that makes a difference in the amount of flour. I remember back in the 1980’s they had Tiara Pan Cake Mixes but I guess that is a thing of the past. I wanted to use my old pan I found and it was hard to find a recipe for it. Thank you for visiting my blog.

  2. Can you make the cake without the almond? Do you need to substitute anything?

    1. Hi. Thank you for checking out my recipe. This particular cake wouldn’t work without the almond paste but you could do a totally different cake or cake mix for the cake part and then just finish with the filling and fruits. This size pan won’t hold a whole cake mix, so you could just put less batter in your pan. That would work.
