Remove from heat. Microwave the bloomed gelatin for 10\u201315 seconds until liquid, stir it thoroughly into the warm mango puree, and let the mixture cool to room temperature.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Fold in cream:<\/strong> Whip the cold heavy cream to soft-to-medium peaks. Gently fold one-third of the whipped cream into the cooled mango puree to lighten it, then fold in the remaining cream until uniform.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Set the mousse:<\/strong> Pour over the biscuit base, tap the pan gently on the counter to release air bubbles, and refrigerate for 2 hours until the top is firm to the touch.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add the mirror glaze:<\/strong> Bloom 1 tsp gelatin in 1 tbsp cold water for 5 minutes. Warm the 120 g mango puree, 2 tbsp water, and 1 tbsp sugar until steaming, stir in the melted gelatin, and cool until lukewarm. Pour gently over the set mousse layer and chill for another 2 hours before unmolding.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ingredients Instructions<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4985,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[177],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4984","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chilled-bakes"],"Cooking_time":"4 hours","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/3.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4984","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4984"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4984\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4986,"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4984\/revisions\/4986"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4985"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4984"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4984"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cake.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4984"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
