Freeze Dried Raspberries

How do i use freeze dried raspberries in a white choc and raspberry cake? In the batter? in The white choc buttercream filling or both? How much do i use coz I assume i would have to use less than fresh raspberries? (8"cake). These are NOT frozen raspberries. They are a little jar 20g of tiny hard dried raspberries. Do I need to rehydrate them first?

Does anyone have a good white chocolate and raspberry sponge recipe to share? Im not sure which part to make raspberry and which the white chocolate. Batter or buttercream?

Thank you very much in advance

Hi
We make lots of white chocolate and raspberry cup cakes and wedding cakes, we just use them straight from the pack as many as you like, no need to rehydrate. Use the same method for your buttercream, it will turn a lovely shade of pink with flecks of raspberry. We also use freeze dried strawberries and blueberries. They are some of our best sellers as the flavours are quite intense and natural tasting. Good luck
