Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Gather all your ingredients for the Berry Cream Pastry Cake. Ensure your workspace is clean and organized.
  2. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and flaky.
  3. While the pastry cools, prepare the whipped cream filling by mixing heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip until soft peaks form (about 4-5 minutes).
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together the mixed berries, granulated sugar, and cornstarch. Allow the mixture to sit for 15-20 minutes to draw out juices.
  5. Assemble the cake by layering the cooled puff pastry with whipped cream and the berry mixture. Repeat until all ingredients are used.
  6. Cover the assembled cake and refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.
