Very admirable making it twice! This may be a bit daft but would storing it in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight before serving be most appropriate? Thanks Linda!

The mousse would set over night. Making 1.5 the amount called for is adequate. When I made the caramel layer, I skipped the blitz bit and just mixed in the butter with a spatula. I made sure to cut the butter to small cubes. Just mix so it's well incorporated, tasted just as good and less mess to clean up.

I plan on making it this weekend and feel a lot more confident with all of the feedback. How long did you set the mousse for in the fridge/freezer before assembling the cake? Was 1.5 times the amount of mousse enough or do you think I should make more to be sure? Also with the caramel layer when it says to blitz it after putting in the putting did you do this in the food processor? Thank you! Julia Thanks so much for all your tips!

Made the mistake of promising this cake if an engagement was ever forthcoming. It finally happenned and the cake promise was remembered. Halving the ingredients was brilliant. I was 3/4 way thru cake when daughter rang with details of your blog. Thanks for the pictures - yours looks great. Mine will be decorated differently - sticking with the engagement theme. Found the whole process straightforward if you concentrate of one process at time, have a whole day to spare and no-one underfoot!
