Note

For best texture, ensure the raspberry mixture is frozen solid but not rock-hard before chopping. If it is too hard, let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes.

You can substitute artificial sweetener with regular sugar or honey, adjusting the amount to taste based on the sweetness of the raspberries.

This dessert is best served immediately after assembly to maintain the airy texture of the whipped components.

If using crème fraîche instead of whipped cream, the dessert will be denser and tangier. Ensure the crème fraîche is well-chilled.

Make sure all utensils used for beating egg whites are completely clean and free of grease for maximum volume.
