Where to find ingredients
You can find these ingredients at local supermarkets. Condensed milk and table cream are typically found in the baking or canned goods aisles. Fresh passion fruit can be sourced in the produce section; as a substitute for fresh pulp, you may use frozen passion fruit pulp if available, though fresh is ideal for the garnish.
Preparation method
- In a blender, add the condensed milk, table cream, and concentrated passion fruit juice
- Blend until you obtain a homogeneous and creamy mixture
- Transfer the mixture to an attractive serving bowl or individual dessert cups
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until it sets firmly
- If you wish to speed up the process, you may place it in the freezer for about 30 to 40 minutes
- While the mousse chills, prepare the syrup: in a saucepan, mix the sugar and water
- Place over medium heat and cook until the sugar dissolves and the syrup reaches a thread consistency
- Add the passion fruit pulp to the syrup, stirring gently
- Cook for another 1 or 2 minutes, just to heat through and integrate the flavors
- Remove from heat
- Once the mousse has set, pour the passion fruit syrup over it before serving
