A classic French layer cake called Charlotte, with an exotic twist, with Mango fruit and Coconut mousse
About this recipe
A beautiful French Cake called "Charlotte"

Traditionally, this French Charlotte is made with pears, but I find that my version with coconut and mangoes more modern and more delicious

The combination mango and coconut works every time I bring this pastry to a party!

Origin of the recipe

Agenda

The Mango Jelly
1. Bloom the Gelatin (4 Gelatin Sheets) in cold water for 2 minutes while keeping the saucepan on low heat
2. Cook on medium heat the diced Mangoes (2 Cups or 350 g). I recommend canned mangoes
3. Add in the Sugar (3 Tablespoons or 40 g)
4. After cooking 2 minutes, blend into a puree
5. Add the Gelatin (4 Gelatin Sheets) and stir
6. You may either use a pastry ring with a plastic wrap, or use a silicone mold. Use a diameter of 0.78" (or 25/32" or 2 cm) smaller than the chosen diameter for the cake
7. Pour in the jelly and place into the freezer for at least 2 hours until hard
Gelatin Sheets
Immersion Multi-Purpose Hand Blender
Immersion Hand Blender Bamix
Tart Ring 7.1″
Ladyfingers
8. Prepare the Ladyfinger batter (#ERROR 2 or 600 g)
9. I have specified the quantity (#ERROR 2 or 600 g), which refers to the weight of the batter before baking, not the weight of the baked ladyfinger biscuits.
11. You need to make the Ladyfinger batter for the side and a circle for the bottom
The Coconut Mousse
15. The day you are ready to assemble the cake, make the Coconut Mousse (#ERROR 2 or 620 g)
