Multi layered mousse (not mouse) & other fillings cake

[longtompot]

I would like to make a cake like you see on Bake off for the showstopper which is layers of cake with layers of mousse or jelly or other things in between. I would like to make it for Christmas so thinking those sorts of flavours, maybe orange or rum. It can't be chocolate, either milk dark or white, and I need to be able to use df cream.
It's a long shot, but does anyone have a recipe that would work, or any terminology that I can search to find something suitable?

You need to adjust your title 🤦🏼‍♀️

Gah! I thought I spelt it right. Thank you

Mouse layer cake. Yum. All those squishy, crunchy, wobbly layers topped with whipped cream. I can see it now. Is this for your cats seeing as it's dairy free and full of mouse?

Perhaps add some robin to be extra festive. Best Christmas ever for the cats.

Yummers! But no. My cats won't be getting a look in

Thank you for amending the title mumsnetmods

I have some moulds to make chocolate mice. They could make a nice filling.

Sadly, no chocolate is allowed in the cake, but would have been a great idea.

Mary Berry made a nice one with a satsuma mousse, I think

Do you have a link to it @MotherofTerriers? I can't seem to find it.

I can’t see it online but I’ve got a couple of her books here, I’ll have a look tomorrow and see if I can dig it out.

I made this years ago. I remember it being a bit of a faff but delicious.

found it
Confusingly, its called angel sponge cheesecake. I think you should be able to find it online, but if not shout, its in her ultimate cake book
The name is a bit misleading, the cheesecake style filling is sandwiched between 2 thin layers of sponge. The recipe says orange juice I used clemantine as I made it at Christmas
The instructions say to keep it chilled, and you do need to as the filling will melt if it warms up
