Instructions

In a small saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice over medium heat until softened. Blend and strain to remove seeds.
Bloom gelatin in cold water, then stir into the warm raspberry puree and freeze in small silicone molds for at least 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper. Beat eggs and sugar until fluffy, then fold in sifted flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt.
Bake the batter for 8–10 minutes until springy. Cool and cut into circles matching the dome mold size.
Bloom gelatin again. Melt chopped chocolate with half the heavy cream and stir in bloomed gelatin and vanilla. Let cool slightly before folding in whipped cream until smooth.
Fill dome mold cavities with mousse, press in frozen raspberry inserts, cover with more mousse, and top with sponge cake rounds. Freeze overnight until solid.
Bloom gelatin for the glaze, combine sugar, water, cocoa, and cream in a saucepan. Simmer and stir until smooth, then stir in the gelatin and allow to cool slightly before use.
Unmold the domes and pour glaze over each one on a wire rack, letting excess drip off.

Notes

Ensure the raspberry insert is fully frozen before assembling the domes for the best results.
Use a thermometer to check the glaze temperature; it should be warm but not hot enough to melt the mousse.
