Little Miss Bento

Many of you would probably know by now that I love making tarts. Yup, yet another tart recipe today for you!!

Instead of my usual custard filling, I made homemade yogurt mousse fruit tart, oh my my… the yogurt mousse dare I say it myself, is so so yummy!! 

It had the right amount of sweetness, matched with the refreshing flavour of yogurt and a melt-in-your mouth mousse texture. Please try this yummy recipe. 

I made this for a hen party celebration of a good friend and the tart got thumbs up for everyone :) yay!! :D

You can add your favorite fruits toppings for the tart. For this tart, I added strawberries, kiwi berries, grapes, some longan pieces and apple slices!

Recipe for Yogurt Mousse Tart (for 18cm size tart x 1)

1. One baked tart crust (To bake your tart crust, please refer to my trusty tart crust recipe here)

2. Yogurt Mousse Tart Filling
- 280g plain yogurt *I use marigold plain yogurt (has sugar)
- 200ml whipping cream
- 15g sugar (for cream)
- 40g sugar (for yogurt)
- 10g gelatin powder
- 75ml water

3. Fruits for tart topping
- Grapes (halved), strawberries (halves and whole), kiwi berries (sliced), longans (cut into bit size), apple slices
- Snow sugar 

Method
(in this order)
1. In a bowl, add whipping cream and 15g sugar. Beat with mixer at high speed until peaks form. Set in the chiller. 

2. In another bowl, add in the plain yogurt and sugar, mix well

3. In a heat resistant cup or bowl, add in the gelatin powder and water. Heat in the microwave at 500W for 15 sec until gelatin dissolves. 

4. Fold in the whipped cream into the yogurt mixture and add in the gelatin, fold until evenly mixed (it does not take very long). 

5. Set in the chiller for about 1 hour, after which, it would have a mousse like curdish texture. 

6. Fill your baked tart crust with the yogurt mousse filing. The tart crust should be fully cooled before you fill in the yogurt mousse. 

7. Add and arrange the fruit toppings.
The video shows the arrangements of the fruits on the tart:
- First I dusted the tart crust with snow sugar. 
- On the yogurt mousse, I arranged grape halves, strawberries, kiwi berries, longan bits and apple slices (in this order). 

8. Dust on snow sugar after all the fruit toppings are arranged to give it a sweet dreamy presentation look and feel.
