Ingredients:
  • 568.13 gm thickened cream
  • 579.38 gm milk
  • 141.90 gm caster sugar
  • 32.50 gm custard powder
  • 400g madeira cake, trimmed, cut into 2cm pieces
  • 65.63 gm orange juice
  • 4 large white nectarines, stones removed, thinly sliced
  • 250g mascarpone, softened
  • 53.75 gm caster sugar
  • 9.00 gm powdered gelatine
  • 40.00 ml rosewater
Instructions:
  • In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine 3/4 cup cream, 1 1/2 cups milk, and 5 tablespoons sugar. Bring to a boil. In a small bowl, mix custard powder with the remaining milk until smooth. Stir the custard mixture into the cream mixture. Cook over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes until it boils and thickens. Take off the heat and let it cool for 10 minutes before using.
  • Place the cake at the bottom of a 10-cup glass serving bowl. Generously drizzle with juice. Add half of the sliced nectarine on top. Carefully pour the custard over the layers. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour until cold.
  • With an electric mixer, whip mascarpone, vanilla, remaining sugar, and remaining cream until soft peaks form. Smooth over custard and chill in the fridge for 1 hour.
  • For the Rosewater jelly, in a small saucepan over medium heat, mix sugar and 1 1/4 cups of cold water until sugar dissolves, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add gelatine and stir until dissolved, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat, mix in rosewater, strain into a jug, and let cool to room temperature.
  • Place the remaining nectarine slices on top of the mascarpone layer and then delicately drizzle the cooled jelly over them. For optimal results, refrigerate the dish overnight. Finally, serve and enjoy!
