Black Sesame Passion Fruit Entremet Cake

Entremet cakes – complex layer cakes encased in mousse – require the precise execution of many complicated French pastry techniques, and this cake is a real stunner. On a chocolate sable base, layers of chocolate cake, passion fruit caramel, and sesame crunch are surrounded by black sesame mousse.
