Where to find ingredients
You can find these ingredients at local supermarkets or grocery stores. For the concentrated passion fruit juice, pure fruit juice is ideal; as a substitute, you may use high-quality bottled juice, though the texture and acidity may vary slightly.
Preparation method
- In a blender, add the condensed milk, the table cream, and the concentrated passion fruit juice
- Blend until you obtain a smooth and creamy mixture
- Transfer the mixture to a nice serving dish or individual bowls
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until it sets firmly
- If you wish to speed up the process, you can place it in the freezer for about 30-40 minutes
- While the mousse chills, prepare the syrup: in a saucepan, mix the sugar and the water
- Bring to medium heat and cook until the sugar dissolves and it forms a thread-like syrup
- Add the passion fruit pulp to the syrup, stirring gently
- Cook for 1 or 2 more minutes, just to warm it through and integrate the flavors
- Remove from the heat
- Once the mousse is firm, pour the passion fruit syrup over it before serving
