Summer in a cake with fresh Scottish raspberries

Summer means fresh fruit and with fresh Scottish raspberries in season we used these instead of strawberries.  We much prefer a raspberry to a strawberry, be them fresh or in jam.  Go crazy with the amount of raspberries to use here, as they are so tasty.  Thanks to Scotty Brand for supplying the fresh Scottish raspberries.
