What is the name of this Japanese cake, and how do you make it?
I went to a Japanese restaurant called Tokyo-One yesterday and had one of there cakes that I can't seem to get enough of. I believe it was a white sponge cake and then a Strawberry moose on top and some kind of red gel. I found a picture of it on there website...

It is in the middle row, third from the left. It seems they make other kinds that they are showing.
Does anyone know the name of this cake and/or how to make it?
Thank you!
If wasn't a fruit topping though, it was a strawberry mousse.

I would call it "strawberry mousse cake" or "strawberry mirror cake".
It also can be framboise (raspberry) not strawberry.
