Calories per serving: 408kcal
Ingredients
- 1 box (1 box) strawberries
- 1 box (1 box ) boysenberries
- *wafers
- ½ cup (0.53 cup) Nutella
- ¼ cup (0.26 cup) *Rose Preserve
Yogurt/Cream Filling

- ½ cup (0.53 cup) plain yogurt
- 1 tablespoon (1.01 tablespoon) whipping cream
- 3 tablespoons (3.04 tablespoons) sugar
Cream Topping
- ½ cup (0.53 cup) whipping cream
- 1 splash (1 splash) balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon (1.01 teaspoon) *rose preserve
- ¼ cup (0.26 cup) powdered sugar
Instructions
- Mise en place
- Hull and slice the strawberries, keeping a few whole for garnishing the top.
Yogurt/Cream Filling
- Mix the yogurt, sour cream, whipping cream, and sugar together. Set aside.
Start Layering
- Using an offset spatula or frosting knife, slather yogurt/cream over a wafer. Put in on a nice serving dish.
- The next layer, spread Nutella on a new wafer. Put it on top of the yogurt/cream layer.
- The next layer, spread rose petal preserve on a new wafer.
- Be careful when you get to the edge as it as a tendency to drip. Put this layer on top of the Nutella layer.
- The next layer, spread more of the yogurt/cream on a new wafer, and place the sliced strawberries, as many as you can fit in a single layer.
- For the final layer, put a new wafer and spread it with the yogurt/cream mixture. Then place the boysenberries and strawberries nicely. Set aside.
Make the cream
- Put the cream, vinegar,and rose preserve in a bowl and start whipping it either in a stand mixer or hand held mixer. When it starts to thicken a little, add the powdered sugar, and continue to whip until it is nice and thick. It will probably not ever get like whipped cream, but should be spoonable.
- Spoon the cream over the fruits in a nice pattern. Put the torte in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, better overnight, for all the layers to soak up the flavors.
Notes
You can use whatever fresh fruit you want. Blue berries and raspberries are a good idea for 4th of July, or peaches, apricots, pears, what have you. It's your Wafer Torte, you put in what you like
