Panna Cotta is a light, smooth and creamy dessert which serves after a meal. For Sweet fantasy club series #2, I choose panna cotta as a fusion dessert; you can choose any flavour or topping which you like it. Panna cotta means “cooked cream” is an Italian dessert. It’s my first attempt to prepare panna cotta at home.
For this recipe, I choose
two flavor one is coconut and second is cherry flavor which gives fabulous and
tempting color together to this dessert. It’s an eggless pudding which prepared
with combination of milk, cream, sugar and gelatine. To get perfect panna
cotta, you have to refrigerate the liquid for minimum 4-5 hours. You can serve panna
cotta with chocolate sauces, caramel, berries or fruit coulis. For vegetarian
version, you can replace the gelatine with china grass or agar agar powder.
