Instructions
Bloom gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes.
Heat grape juice, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla bean paste, lemon juice, and salt until warm and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
Pour a thin layer of the grape mixture into dome molds, coating the sides evenly. Chill until partially set.
Whip mascarpone, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
Fill the center of each dome with the vanilla cream, leaving a small border around the edges.
Cover with the remaining grape mixture and freeze for at least 4 hours until fully firm.
For the mirror glaze, bloom gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes.
Heat sweetened condensed milk and water until steaming. Remove from heat and stir in gelatin until dissolved.
Pour over white chocolate and mix until smooth. Add grape juice concentrate, purple food coloring, and pearl luster dust until glossy and vibrant.
Allow glaze to cool until thick but pourable.
Unmold frozen domes and place on a wire rack. Pour the amethyst mirror glaze evenly over each dome.
Let excess drip off and allow the glaze to set.
Finish with fresh grape halves, white chocolate curls, and edible shimmer dust.
