For the cake layers: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and set rack at
middle level. Butter a 9 or 10-inch round cake pan and line the  bottom
with a disk of parchment or waxed paper. Whisk yolks with half  the
sugar and vanilla until thick and light. In a clean, dry bowl,  whisk
whites with salt and continue whisking until they are white and
opaque. Whip in remaining sugar in a stream. Continue whipping whites
until they hold a firm peak. Fold yolks into whites then sift over  and
fold in flour and starch. Scrape batter into prepared pan and  smooth
top. Bake about 30 minutes, until well risen and deep in  golden color.
Unmold to a rack to cool.  For the custard cream: Bring milk to a boil
with half the sugar in a  heavy, non-reactive pan. Whisk yolks with
remaining sugar and sift  over and whisk in flour. When milk boils,
whisk a third into the yolk  mixture. Return the remaining milk to a
boil and whisk in yolk  mixture,  continuing to whisk until the mixture
thickens and comes to a boil.  Whisk constantly 30 seconds. Remove from
heat and whisk in vanilla.  Scrape half the cream to a bowl and cover
with plastic wrap,  refrigerate to cool. Whisk chocolate into remaining
cream and scrape  into a bowl, cover and cool.  For syrup: In a small
saucepan, bring water and sugar to a boil. Cool  and stir in rum.  For
whipped cream: Combine all ingredients and whip to a soft peak.  To
assemble: Cut cake into thin, vertical slices. Place a layer of  slices
in the bottom of a glass serving bowl and moisten with syrup.  Spread
with half the vanilla cream and scatter with half the  raspberries.
Continue alternating layers to make 2 layers each,  vanilla/raspberry,
chocolate and whipped creams, ending with whipped  cream. Sprinkle
lightly with chocolate shavings and a few raspberries.  Recipe by:
