Dragon fruit mousse ice cream cup

Overview

Food creates color, natural ingredients create color, and the color created by red-fleshed pitaya is my favorite. Love that touch of purple, so beautiful, so romantic... When I saw the theme of this event, it was the first thing that came to my mind. It was just that I didn’t have it at home in the first two days. I bought dragon fruit yesterday. When I came back, I made this dragon fruit mousse. I used a Baulmeck mold to make it into the shape of a cup. Then I filled the lavender mousse cup with avocado ice cream. Not only was the color no longer monotonous, but the taste of the avocado ice cream also matched perfectly with the mousse.

Ingredients

Steps

  1. Soak the gelatine slices in ice water in advance until soft. Be sure to use ice water, otherwise the gelatine slices will partially melt and affect the solidification effect.

  11. Pour into the mold and freeze in the refrigerator for about 3 hours. This amount is used to make 3 mousses using my mold. In addition, I made a dragon fruit ice cup without whipping cream, and two pea mousse cups, and froze them together.

  13. I forgot to take a picture of how it looks after being unmoulded. This one doesn’t have whipped cream. I also filled the hollow part with some ice cream, but you can still see some of it, so I’ll use it to illustrate.
