Instructions

Step 1

1. Prepare the egg whites: Ensure egg whites are at room temperature. Tip: Room temperature egg whites whip more easily and to a higher volume than cold ones.

Step 2

2. Make the sugar syrup: In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Cook over low heat until the sugar syrup reaches 120°C (250°F). Use a kitchen thermometer for accuracy. Tip: Stir occasionally to ensure the sugar dissolves completely.

Step 3

3. Whip the egg whites: When the syrup reaches 106°C (220°F), begin whipping the egg whites at a low speed, gradually increasing as the syrup temperature rises. Pour the sugar syrup in a thin stream (make sure it does not hit the whisk) while continuing to whip at high speed. Keep whipping until the mixture cools to 40-43°C (105-110°F) and add the powdered sugar. Whip again until fully combined. Tip: Consistent pouring and whipping ensures a stable meringue structure.

Step 4

4. Shape the meringue: On baking paper, shape the meringue using a large ice cream spoon. Bake at 80°C (180°F) on convection mode for 3 hours. After baking, open the oven door and let the meringues cool completely for 3-4 hours.

Step 5

5. Prepare the cream: Melt the white chocolate and dairy cream in a water bath. Then, mix in the condensed milk and 'boil' for 1-2 minutes. Add the coconut flakes and vanilla paste, stirring well for another 1-2 minutes until the mixture thickens. Cool the cream and refrigerate for 1-2 hours. Tip: Use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor.

Step 6

6. Combine creams: In a mixer bowl, combine the mascarpone, coconut cream, and the cooled mixture from the fridge. Mix at maximum speed until thoroughly combined (about 1-2 minutes). Tip: Ensure all ingredients are well chilled for a thicker, more stable cream.

Step 7

7. Assemble the 'snowballs': Form meringue layers about 6-7 cm in diameter. Assemble with three or four meringue layers, filling the spaces between each layer with cream. Apply an even layer of cream on top of each meringue. Decorate with coconut candies and sprinkle with coconut flakes. Refrigerate for 6-12 hours before serving. Tip: Allowing the 'snowballs' to rest in the refrigerator enhances the flavors and textures.
