  1. Begin by pouring 1 cup of heavy cream into a chilled mixing bowl. Whip the cream on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, blend 1 cup of fresh raspberries and 2 tablespoons of sugar to create a vibrant puree. Fold the raspberry mixture and 1/2 cup of crushed pistachios into the whipped cream.
  3. Prepare the gelatin according to package instructions and allow it to cool. Then fold it into the mousse mixture.
  4. Spoon the mousse mixture into individual serving molds. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  5. Once set, remove the cakes from the molds. Garnish with fresh raspberries and crushed pistachios, and serve chilled.
