Chocolate and Raspberry - A Match Made in Heaven

So here I am with another cake, finally. This one was for a 3rd birthday for a kid who loves Toopy and Binoo, a cute cartoon show that shows on YTV Treehouse. I think this cartoon is quite new as I had never heard of it before but a little research got me some pretty good pictures of it. The only other specifications were: Chocolate and fruity. I got to thinking and here is what I came up with:

2 chocolate dacquois meringues sandwiching a milk chocolate rice krispies layer, and on top of that, a raspberry jelly floating inside chocolate mousse that has fresh raspberries folded into it.

The outside is just a dark chocolate glaze and the picture, I piped out of chocolate. The design turned out exactly how I wanted it to turn out so I was relieved and very happy with the result. I didn't get to taste the cake unfortunately but I heard that it was a big hit so I'm absolutely delighted. Can't wait till the next experiment!
