I don't have an exact recipe for this but here's my process for making a kind of

Strawberry Shortcake w/ White Chocolate Whipped Cream

3 oz. of white chocolate, melted over double boiler
Whipping cream (whipped up and slightly sweetened with about 1/4 cup sugar)

approx. 1/3 cup Raspberry or strawberry jam dissovled with equal amount of water. - to make a syrup.

store bought round sponge cake (make 3 layers)
any berries, like strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, etc.. lightly sprinkled with sugar.

Take a little of the melted white chocolate and mix in with a little of the whipped cream to temper it. Then mix into the larger batch of whipped cream.

Take the sponge cake, brush with the jam syrup, layer with the white chocolate whipped cream, add the berries, layer again with sponge cake and repeat the process. Top layer should have a small layer of whipped cream and a little amount of the fruits.

Makes a very light and very tasty cake.
