03 - Whisk butter until smooth. Toss in white sugar and whip until it’s light. Stir in sour cream and add egg whites one at a time.
04 - Stir milk, vanilla, almond flavor, and oil together. Alternate mixing the flour and wet blend into the butter mix, little by little.
05 - Pour mix into your prepared pan. Let it bake for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool it entirely.
06 - Heat heavy cream with white chocolate in the microwave in small intervals. When smooth, mix in color if using.
07 - Gently melt white chocolate with some of the cream. Whip the remaining cream with sugar and vanilla until thick. Carefully fold in cooled white chocolate.
08 - Poke holes in the cake. Fill rows alternatively with ganache and sauce. Spread mousse on top, drizzle mix of sauce and ganache, then pile on raspberries and shaved curls.
