Description
Delightfully tangy mousse cake balancing sweet kiwi and rich coconut flavors, topped with a zesty lime glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ripe kiwis, peeled and pureed
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1 pack of gelatin (optional for firmness)
- 1 cup whipped cream
- Shredded coconut, for coating
- Lime wedges, for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by combining the pureed kiwis, coconut cream, sugar, lime juice, and lime zest in a bowl. Mix until everything is well blended.
- If you’re looking for a firmer cake, dissolve the gelatin in a little warm water and mix it into your kiwi mixture.
- Gently fold in the whipped cream into your mixture, being careful to maintain its lightness.
- Pour the entire mixture into a cake mold and refrigerate it for at least 15 minutes.
- Once set, carefully remove the mousse cake from the mold and coat the sides with shredded coconut.
- Serve chilled, garnished with lime wedges for an extra burst of citrusy goodness.
Notes
For added freshness, pair with slices of kiwi or tropical berries. Best served chilled and can be made in advance.
