Step 1: Make chocolate cake
Cocoa powder mixture: in the pot heat up water, sugar, veg oil, cocoa powder while mixing until sugar dissolves. Cool off.

Flour mixture: sift together flour, baking powder, and baking soda.

Eggs: separate egg whites from egg yolks.

In the mixer (whisk attachment) whisk egg whites with cream of tartar. Once foamy, add sugar. Whisk until stiff peaks.
Add egg yolks, one by one.
On low speed, while whisking pour cocoa powder mixture, and add vanilla extract.
With a spatula fold in sifted flour and mix only until combined.

Line 9” round springform pan with parchment paper. Do not butter the sides of the pan.
Bake at 350°C for 40-45 min. or until dry toothpick. Close the heat and cool off the cake in the open oven.

*Cake comes out pretty tall.

Step 2: Make gelatin
In a wide bowl put 3 tbsp cold water and sprinkle 1 tsp gelatin on top. Let it sit until sets/blooms. Add 3-4 Tbsp warm water on the top. Whisk until dissolved.

Step 3: Make whipped cheese
Whipped cream: In a mixer (with whisk attachment) whisk heavy cream with vanilla extract until soft peaks.

Cream cheese: In the hand-mixer whisk mascarpone, cream cheese, and sugar until blended.

Slowly blend heavy cream with cream cheese.
Add gelatin and mix until combined.

Step 4: Make jello & mango fruit
Dissolve jello in hot water. Pour into wide 12” long container. Place in fridge. Once sets, cut into small cubes/squares.

Mango Fruit: remove the skin, slice it and cut into small cubes/squares.

Step 5: Assemble the cake
On the top of the chocolate cake (in the baking pan) spread whipped cheese. Once set in the fridge, then randomly place mango fruit and jello cubes on the top of it. Keep in fridge.
