Mango Mirror Cake


I've promised someone to post Mango Mirror Cake sometime ago and this recipe has been in my folder for at least 3 months ...sorry for the long overdue.
I love mango and I can eat mango almost everyday during the mango season because mango is so refreshing and chilling. I love to make mango pudding and sometimes add mango into salads too, especially this Mango Mirror Cake is my family all time favorite.







Here is the recipe

Mango Mousse

13g Gelatin powder
30g Water
40g Sugar
1 tsp Mango flavor

220g Fresh whipped cream

In a pot add mango puree, water, sugar and gelatin powder together and bring to boil till gelatin and sugar dissolved.
Leave to cool in a large bowl and set aside.
