And after a somewhat challenging appetizer to make, here is a quick and tasty preparation for those who have little time to spend in the kitchen but want tasty homemade recipes!
The savory flower cake with mousse is made with 2 packages of ready-made pizza bases (today I picked those from Coop) and for the filling, I prepared in 5 seconds a tasty ham and cooking cream mousse that was left in the fridge from a previous recipe.
If you happen to have some turkey breast in the kitchen, you can choose this deli meat if you want another more flavorful filling; you can blend cow ricotta and Milano salami … or try according to your personal taste that wins over everything!!!

SAVORY FLOWER CAKE WITH MOUSSE
- Difficulty: Very easy
- Cost: Economical
- Rest time: 5 Minutes
- Preparation time: 15 Minutes
- Portions: 9-inch PAN
- Cooking methods: Oven
- Cuisine: Italian
Ingredients RECIPE SAVORY FLOWER CAKE WITH MOUSSE
- 2 packages ready-made pizza base (for me Coop)
- 2.8 oz cooked ham
- 2 tbsp cooking cream
- to taste salt and pepper
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE SAVORY FLOWER CAKE WITH MOUSSE
In the mixer, we put the slightly chopped cooked ham slices and start the blades.
As soon as the deli meat has softened a bit, we add the cooking cream and season with salt and pepper.
I added about 2 and a half tablespoons but adjust to obtain a mousse that is not too fluid but not too solid either!
We unroll the bases and with the help of a glass make many small circles: mine had a diameter of 2.75 inches.
Inside the circle, put a bit of cooked ham mousse then fold into a half-moon and then join two ends as seen in the photo.
Continue making petals filled with cooked ham mousse arranging them in a circle in the baking pan lined with parchment paper.
In the center, to prevent some pizza flowers from moving, place … the glass you used to make the petals or another object to prevent it from expanding and changing the flower arrangement.
Brush the savory flower cake with mousse with a little EVO oil then bake in a preheated oven at 356°F for 35 to 40 minutes or depending on your oven’s characteristics.
The savory cake filled with cooked ham should gradually brown and cook well…
Before serving, I filled the central hole with salami slices first folded in half and then rolled on themselves but you can also put a small bowl with a dip like ketchup to dip the petals…
Enjoy your meal!
