There are no rules about which passion fruit is best to use in this recipe. You can use passion fruit according to availability or according to your taste. For my passion fruit mousse I wanted to play around and used 3 different types of passion fruit (purple, golden and sweet passion fruit). You can also use frozen passion fruit pulp or concentrated juice. Maybe these options are easier to find.
How to prepare the passion fruit Mousse?
The secret of this recipe is to use quality ingredients. You can adapt the recipe according to your preference. There is light condensed milk if you want a dessert with fewer calories. There are also vegan condensed milk and heavy cream options for vegan diets.
To serve four people I use one can of heavy cream, one can of condensed milk and one cup of passion fruit pulp. If you use the fruit of the passion fruit, beat the pulp in a blender and strain it to get the concentrated juice.

If you use the fruit of the passion fruit, beat the pulp in a blender and strain it to get the concentrated juice. I like to put the seeds of the passion fruit on top of the cream. This brings a tartness and a nice crunch to the dessert.
Ideally it should be refrigerated for at least 2 hours before serving. If you want to turn your mousse into ice cream, put it in the freezer instead of the refrigerator. This is a great option for hot summer days!
