Hi i have try many times of baking mousse cake but failed! Can u pls advise me? My cake ring is 5 inch & i use 4g of gelatin to double boil & dissolve with 12g water. When i mix with puree it becomes like grain. Is it because of the puree too cold? After mix the puree with gelatin, i mix the dissolve sugar+ water into the puree. It started becomes liquid. Then when i fold in whipping cream it totally was a liquid & not form. Can i know why? Appreciate very much of your reply. Thank you!

Esther,
For the gelatin,i normally add plain water(not hot) to dissolve it. I put the bowl of gelatin + water inside another bowl of hot water (yeah like double boil) stir until completely melt leave aside
When u add the gelatin into the whipping cream. It helps if you chill them in fridge a while (1 hour or less) then you take them out to pipe or decorate.
My mousse cake chill and set in fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight
Hope that helps

When u put puree+gelatin into whipping cream, does it becomes melt or still form? Ur steps are gelatin+ water -> puree -> whipping cream?
Thanks you very much!

Esther,
The whipping cream are whipped until stiff (able to hold little shape) It helps if you chill the beater + bowl (for about 30 min b4 whipping the cream)
When the puree+gelatin mix into the whipping cream. The texture is still soft. You need to chill it in the fridge again before attempt piping or decorating

Gelatin+ water --> puree --> whipping cream (already whipped until very stiff)

After mixing all chill again until able to form shape --pipe n decorate and chill overnight ^_^

This kind of "fresh cream" is very tasty (light) but it might be a bit messy and might not be stable (not able to stand heat) That's why it is mostly used as cake layering (inner cake)

For outer cake you might wanna try "Swiss Meringue Buttercream" which is more stable also "light" in taste

Hope my explanation help this time

Esther,
Yes, I normally whipped the whipping cream 1st then keep chill in fridge n prepare the rest of ingredients
When the rest ingredients ready I took the whipped whipping cream out n mix them together

Simonne
