Sweetened mango puree

Thanks to our fruit sourcing expertise and trusted grower network, we enjoy privileged access to Alphonso mangoes, an iconic variety renowned for its rich aromatic profile. Harvested at optimum ripeness, the fruit is transformed into a sweetened puree featuring a vibrant colour, a thick, almost creamy texture, and the intense flavour of ripe mango. Highly appreciated by professionals, it brings indulgence and roundness to desserts, beverages and culinary creations, pairing beautifully with passion fruit, ginger, caramel and white chocolate.

Preparation steps

1. Charcoal pastry dough

Combine flour with diced butter. Add almond powder, salt and icing sugar. Incorporate eggs without giving too much strength to the dough. Homogenize the dough with vegetable coal and keep in the fridge for 2 hours. Spread at 1,5 mm thickness and cut out tart rings of 7 cm diameter and stripes of 23,5 cm length. Bake with the roasted almond powder at 160°C for 12 minutes. Gild the paste with egg yolks.

2. Exotic caramel

Heat all purees with scraped vanilla. Brown the sugar with glucose and add the warmed fruit purees. Add the sugar/pectin/starch mix. Blend before use.

3. Soften banana biscuit

With an electric mixer, whip the banana puree with almond paste, eggs, yolks, black sugar. Whip up the egg whites and add sugar and mix to reach stiff peaks. Mix together the batter and the beaten egg whites and add the melted butter. Spread on a 1/2 flexipan and bake at 180°C for 15 to 20 minutes and shape in a half sphere form of 4 cm diameter.

4. Almond whipped cream black sesame

Roast the almonds with black sesame for 20 minutes at 160°C. Bring to a boil the cream 1, milk, sugar and infuse in the mixture the almonds with sesame for 20 minutes. Sieve and bring to a boil again. Add the gelatin mass and pour on the mascarpone. Blend while adding the cream 2. Whip before use.

5. Vanilla whipped cream

Using an apple corer, dig in the remaining half banana biscuit and fill with exotic caramel, freeze. Using a toothpick, pipe the almond whipped cream from the top to down on the half sphere biscuit. Pipe the vanilla whipped cream in a savarin mould and freeze. Place the assembly on the tartlet.
