First I made a vanilla pudding (following this basic recipe, but omitting the passion fruit), and I filled the bottoms of the jars (they are 125ml jars) with it. I put the jars in a bowl with some cold water to cool quickly. I added a few pieces of 72% dark chocolate to the pot with the remaining vanilla pudding, which was still hot, and stirred to make chocolate pudding. I poured some in to make a second layer in the jars. I had a lot of chocolate pudding left over for four ramekins, so I made a separate dessert too :-).
In the end, when the puddings were cold I made the final pink layer: I whipped about 100 ml of cream with a tsp of Plum Powder (the flavour was lightly tangy and really nice, and the colour very pretty) and pour it on top. Refrigerate with the lid on, and serve with the lid on!! Very cute!
And now another sweet reminder: Emma just published the recap for

ReplyDeleteUn saluto dai viaggiatori golosi ...
Goooolooosiiiiii!Che bei colori e quanto amo le ortensie!
ReplyDeleteBuon weekend a te, baci!
This is so lovely! I love the triple layers, they make it so much fun!
ReplyDeleteYour layered pudding is so pretty and creative. I would be thrilled to receive a jar. Love your hydrangeas too. They are one of my favorite flowers. They grow in my garden in the mountains and I dry them as the season ends.
ReplyDeleteIt's my pleasure to meet you Alessandra and I look forward to getting to know you better. I'm so glad you stopped by my blog. I'm off to read your post on your trip to Kawau.

I love desserts in s jar, anf these look beautiful and nice, absolutely nice! gloria
ReplyDeleteun'idea carinissima!!! BUONI!!! e anche la presentazione mi piace molto!
ReplyDeleteche simpatica presentazione Alessandra! buon weekend...
ReplyDeleteLove the colors of this pudding. Thanks for the reminder: I haven't made pudding in a long time!
ReplyDeleteSplendida idea! Davvero e si può personalizzare! Mi rimane difficile trovare con facilità vasetti così piccoli, quando ero a Monaco potevo comperarli a vagoni...bellissime ortensie! Buon fine settimana
ReplyDeleteQuesti erano del miele, mi piacciono perché hanno il tappo a vite :-), ma è vero, non è facile trovarli così piccoli.
Deleteoriginali nei barattoli!! con cosa posso sostituire la panna? non dirmi con crema di tofu (non mi piace)....magari una crema spumosa di anacardi?
ReplyDelete....le ortensie mi ricordano sempre mia nonna, le amava e ne aveva di bellissime in giardino :)
Pensavo che in Italia ci fosse anche una panna vegetale, ma non l'ho mai provata e non so se si può montare. La panna di tofu non la conosco, conosco quella di cocco (come il latte di cocco ma più densa) però ancora una volta non so se può montare. L'unica sarebbe scaldarla con un po' di agar agra così diventa più solida.
Deletevada per il cocco più agar, grazie :)
DeleteDolcissimi esimpaticissima la presentazione!!!!! grazie per la visita :)
ReplyDeletesono proprio contenta di aver scoperto il tuo blog...davvero molto bello! a presto, tornerò a trovarti :)
Utilizzare i barattolini di vetro mi piace un sacco ! Come anche il tuo tocco finale pink ! A presto
ReplyDeleteSo cute, what a lovely way to serve dessert. Love the hydrangeas too! Hope you are having a lovely weekend :)
ReplyDeleteLovely but too busy really, golly, I am looking forward to Monday!
DeleteSensational! But it's WAAAAAY too attractive to eat!!! The plum powder/cream sounds like a great idea - I'll give it a try!!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to try that plum powder one day. Next time we visit Titirangi, I'll make sure to get it. Whereabouts is the shop?
ReplyDeleteLovely desserts.
Ciao Arfi, in the post about Titirangi there is also a link to where to get the plum powder, and other fruit/veggies powders, I am sure that you can get it in a place nearer to you.
ReplyDeleteLovely dessert ! I like the flavours combination too ;)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week Alessandra !
This is so beautiful, I want that plum powder!
ReplyDeleteThey're absolutely lovely!!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad I'm saving my jars :)
