Here I am again with a super quick and fruity recipe for Mother's Day: a raspberry fondant. To make it, I used Valrhona's raspberry inspiration; for those who don't know, it's a "fake chocolate" made of fruit puree, cocoa butter, and sugar. It has the appearance (excluding color) and texture of chocolate, without cocoa, allowing it to be used in bars or ganaches, but also for quick and easy recipes like this very appetizing fondant 😉

Ingredients:
I used raspberry inspiration from Valrhona: code ILETAITUNGATEAU for 20% off the entire site (affiliate).

Equipment:
Le Creuset Cake Pan
