Print Recipe

A stunning cosmic dessert featuring black cherry domes with a vanilla nebula center and a reflective galaxy glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Black Cherry Galaxy Shell:
  • 2 cups black cherry juice
  • 1 cup black cherry puree, strained
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 1/2 tsp agar-agar powder
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • For the Vanilla Nebula Center:
  • 8 oz mascarpone cheese
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 1 tbsp sweetened condensed milk
  • For the Reflective Galaxy Glaze:
  • 1/4 cup black cherry preserves
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • For Garnish (optional):
  • Fresh dark cherries
  • White chocolate curls
  • Edible silver and pearl dust

Instructions

  1. Combine black cherry juice, black cherry puree, water, sugar, agar-agar powder, lemon juice, and salt in a saucepan. Heat while stirring until fully dissolved and bring to a gentle simmer.
  2. Pour the mixture into dome-shaped silicone molds, filling each cavity halfway. Refrigerate until partially set.
  3. Whip mascarpone cheese, heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, vanilla bean paste, and sweetened condensed milk until smooth, airy, and fluffy. Transfer to a piping bag.
  4. Pipe a small mound of vanilla nebula filling into the center of each partially set dome. Cover with the remaining black cherry mixture and refrigerate until fully set and crystal clear.
  5. Carefully unmold the domes onto a chilled serving platter.
  6. Warm black cherry preserves, honey, water, and lemon juice until smooth and glossy. Allow to cool slightly while remaining pourable.
  7. Brush or pour the reflective glaze over each dome, creating a deep cosmic shine reminiscent of a galaxy.
  8. Garnish with fresh dark cherries, white chocolate curls, and a light dusting of edible silver and pearl dust for a starry effect. Serve thoroughly chilled.

Notes

For best results, use high-quality agar-agar and allow domes to set completely before glazing.
