  7. Bake in a 10-inch cake pan for 30 minutes.
  8. Raspberry ice cream:

  10. Chocolate glaze:
  11. Place the water and corn syrup in a pot and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat, add the chocolate and whisk until smooth.
  12. Almond brittle:
  13. Place the sugar and honey in a pot and cook until the sugar has all melted, once melted add in the butter on tablespoon at a time. Once the mixture caramelizes add the nuts and baking soda and stir. Transfer to a silpat and once cool chop into pieces
  14. To assemble the cake, place the cake sponge into the bottom of a ring mold and top with bits of the toffee and raspberry ice cream. Fill the ring mold with enough ice cream that only 1/4 to 1/2-inch is left at the top of the ring mold. It is preferable to allow this to set in the freezer overnight. Once set, pour the room temp chocolate glaze on top and fill the remaining 1/4 to 1/2-inch of the mold. You may decorate the cake by wrapping it in chocolate, or simply garnish with fresh raspberries.
