  3. Sift in the cake flour and fold in lightly with a rubber spatula. Add butter and milk and mix until the batter looks shiny.
  4. Pour into a baking sheet and smooth out the surface of the batter. Lightly rap the bottom of the baking sheet on the counter 2 - 3 times to release air bubbles. Bake in the oven for about 8 minutes.
  5. When it's done baking, leave the parchment paper attached, wrap the surface with plastic wrap and let cool.
  6. Remove the parchment paper and cut the cake into 12 cm strips. Then, cut the pieces diagonally into 3 cm wedges.
  7. Lay a piece of plastic wrap in a bowl and lay the cake pieces from Step 6 into the bowl, leaving no space between the pieces.
  8. Put sugar and 2 tablespoons of water into a heatproof container. Microwave to melt. When it cools off a bit, add rum. Brush the syrup on Step 7.

  10. Combine the hulled strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, and rum into the blender and blend until pureed.
  11. Put the gelatin over a hot water bath and dissolve. Add a small amount of the puree from Step 10 to the gelatin and combine. Add to the blender and blend.
  12. Add the mixture to the bowl of whipped heavy cream from Step 9. Mix well to combine.
  13. Pour the mousse into the bowl of cake from Step 8. Cut the leftover cake into a 15 cm round lid and cover the cake with it.
