Instructions

Step 1

1. In a saucepan, combine the cream, sugar, and glucose syrup. Heat the mixture over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely. Tip: Stir occasionally to prevent the sugar from burning at the bottom.

Step 2

2. Add the mango puree and passion fruit puree, then bring the mixture to a boil until it reaches 221°F (105°C). Be patient, this process may take some time. Tip: Use a candy thermometer to ensure accurate temperature readings.

Step 3

3. Remove the mixture from the heat and allow it to cool slightly. Add the cocoa butter, then blend the mixture until smooth using an immersion blender. Tip: Be careful with the hot mixture to avoid splatters.

Step 4

4. Let the mixture cool to 104°F (40°C). Add the cold butter (or coconut butter), then whip the mixture well until fully combined. Tip: Make sure the butter is cold for a creamier ganache texture.

Step 5

5. Cover the ganache with plastic wrap, ensuring the wrap touches the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours to stabilize, or preferably overnight. Tip: For best results, let it sit overnight for the flavors to meld together.

Servings

Serving this ganache is a delightful experience. 🎉 Try using it to frost your favorite cakes or cupcakes. The tangy twist from the mango and passion fruit will add a refreshing zing to your bakes. 🍰

For a more sophisticated touch, serve the ganache as a dip for fresh fruit or artisanal bread. 🍓🍞 The luscious texture pairs beautifully with the crispness of fruits like strawberries, apples, or even slices of pear.

If you're hosting a party, consider laying out a ganache fondue station. 🥂 Place the ganache in a small heated pot, and surround it with a variety of dippers like marshmallows, biscotti, and sliced bananas. 🎉 Your guests will be thrilled with the interactive treat!

Faq

  • Why is it important to heat the mixture to 221F?

    Heating to 221F ensures the sugar dissolves completely and helps achieve the right consistency for the ganache.

  • Can I use a regular blender instead of a hand blender?

    Yes, a regular blender can work, but be cautious with hot liquids. A hand blender is generally safer and easier to use for this recipe.

  • How do I store the ganache for later use?

    Keep your ganache in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Before use, let it sit at room temperature to soften.

  • Can I freeze the ganache?

    Yes, you can freeze it. Place it in an airtight container, and it will keep for up to three months. Thaw in the fridge before using.

  • How can I prevent my ganache from becoming grainy?

    Ensure all the sugar has completely dissolved and that you whip well after adding the butter for a smooth texture.

  • Can I flavor the ganache with something other than mango and passion fruit?

    Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with other fruit purees or even spices to create your unique twist.
