Ingredients

Ingredient Quantity
Pavesini biscuits 30 pieces
Heavy cream 150 ml
Greek yogurt 125 g
Powdered sugar 50 g
Gelatin sheets 6 g + 5 g
Dark chocolate chips 200 g
Blueberries 100 g
Cantaloupe melon 100 g
Raspberries 70 g
Food coloring (optional) As needed

Instructions

Start by preparing the filling cream, which will later be flavored with different fruit purees. For this, you’ll need to hydrate the gelatin sheets.

  1. Soften Gelatin: Soak 6 g of gelatin sheets in cold water for 10 minutes.

  2. Prepare the Cream Base:

    • In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and heavy cream.
    • Stir in the soaked and squeezed gelatin (make sure it’s dissolved properly) and beat the mixture until it forms stiff peaks.
    • Sift the powdered sugar directly into the cream and yogurt mixture, then gently fold everything together using a whisk.
    • Divide the cream into 4 portions, each roughly 80 g, or set aside one portion at a time.
  3. Prepare Fruit Purees:

    • Raspberry Puree: Blend the washed raspberries in a food processor until smooth, creating a raspberry puree.

      • Soak 2 g of gelatin from the remaining 5 g in cold water.
      • Warm the raspberry puree slightly and dissolve the softened gelatin in it, mixing well.
      • Fold this raspberry puree into one portion of the yogurt-cream mixture.
    • Blueberry Puree: Strain the blueberries and blend them into a smooth puree.

      • Soak the remaining 3 g of gelatin in cold water, then dissolve it in the warm blueberry puree.
      • Mix the blueberry puree with another 80 g portion of the yogurt-cream mixture.
    • Cantaloupe Melon Puree: Peel and chop the cantaloupe melon into chunks.

      • Puree the melon and strain the mixture to remove any solids.
      • Warm the strained puree slightly and dissolve the remaining gelatin in it.
      • Mix the cantaloupe puree with the final 80 g portion of yogurt-cream mixture.
  4. Assembly of Pavesini Pops:

    • After the fruit-infused creams have cooled and firmed in the fridge for at least 1 hour, it’s time to assemble the pops.
    • Transfer each of the flavored creams into separate piping bags fitted with a plain round tip.
    • Take a Pavesini biscuit and pipe one of the fruit creams onto the more textured side of the biscuit.
    • Place another Pavesini on top, making sure the smoother side is facing down, creating a sandwich of cream-filled biscuits.
    • Repeat this step for all the flavored creams, creating 4 different fruit-flavored Pavesini pops.
  5. Chill and Serve:

    • Once all the Pavesini pops are assembled, place them on a serving tray and refrigerate them until you’re ready to serve.
    • They can be stored in the fridge for up to a few hours, ensuring the perfect firm texture before enjoying!

Tips:

  • For extra flavor and a fun twist, you can add a few drops of food coloring to each cream to give them a vibrant and festive look.
  • You can even experiment with other fruits or flavorings like chocolate or vanilla to suit your taste!
