Orange Cream Dessert

Orange Cream Dessert

A light and refreshing dessert featuring orange and lemon flavors, thickened with gelatin and enriched with whipped cream.

Ingredients

  • 0.33 cup Boiling water
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • 1 cup Orange juice and pulp
  • 3 Egg whites
  • 2 cups Heavy cream
  • 1.33 tablespoons Gelatin (Granulated gelatin)
  • 0.33 cup Cold water
  • 0 Strawberry Sponge Cake (optional) (For lining the mold)

Instructions

  1. 1In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water. Let it stand for 5 minutes to soften.
  2. 2Add the boiling water to the softened gelatin and stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any undissolved particles.
  3. 3In a large bowl, combine the sugar, lemon juice, and orange juice (including the pulp). Add the dissolved gelatin mixture and stir well to combine.
  4. 4Place the bowl in a larger bowl filled with ice water. Chill, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is quite thick (about 15-20 minutes).
  5. 5While the gelatin mixture is chilling, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Once the gelatin mixture is thick, beat it with a whisk until frothy. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites, then fold in the whipped cream.
  6. 6Optionally, line a mold with slices of strawberry sponge cake. Pour the orange cream mixture into the mold. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until set.
