Instructions
Blending the Mousse
- 1
In a blender jar, pour in the sweetened condensed milk and both boxes of chilled table cream.
- 2
Blend on medium speed for 1 minute until completely combined.
- 3
With the blender running on low speed, slowly stream in the concentrated passion fruit juice.
- 4
Blend on high speed for an additional 3 to 4 minutes. The acidic juice reacts naturally with the dairy proteins, thickening the mousse into an airy, cloud-like consistency without any gelatin needed.
- 5
Pour into individual glass dessert bowls or a serving dish. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 to 4 hours to set completely.
Making the Glossy Seeded Glaze
- 6
In a small saucepan, combine the fresh passion fruit pulp, sugar, and water.
- 7
Simmer over low heat for 3 to 5 minutes until the sugar dissolves and the syrup thickens slightly.
- 8
Let cool completely to room temperature before spooning gently over the chilled mousse.
Chef's Golden Secrets
- • Chilling the heavy cream and condensed milk in the fridge beforehand ensures a thicker, fluffier mousse right out of the blender.
- • No gelatin is needed! Natural fruit acid naturally thickens milk proteins during high-speed blending into a stable airy mousse.
