Instant creaminess, no cooking required

Gelcrem Cold revolutionises the preparation of creamy textures. Unlike traditional starches, it does not require heating to gel, allowing you to preserve the vibrant colours and fresh flavours of your fruits or infusions.

Why choose Gelcrem Cold?

  • Exceptional Stability: It perfectly withstands oven-baking (e.g., baking tart shells with cream filling) and freezing without altering the texture.
  • Transparency & Shine: Ideal for fruit coulis where you want to maintain an impeccable aesthetic without a cloudy appearance.
  • Prevents Syneresis: It locks water within the preparation, ensuring your pastry or biscuits do not become soggy upon contact with fillings.

Grapefruit tartlet with Sosa Gelcrem Cold

Pomelo Tartlet

A technical creation showcasing the smoothness of fruit cream without cooking.

In this recipe, Gelcrem Cold allows for a grapefruit cream with exceptional shine and perfect texture, while preserving the delicate bitterness and freshness of the fruit.

Steps: 6

1 - Shortcrust Pastry & Almond Cream

Method: Create a sandy texture with flour, sugar, and butter. Bind with egg. Rest for 1h. For the almond cream, cream the butter and sugar, add the Marcona almond flour, egg, and lemon Cold Confit®. Line the tartlet moulds, fill with almond cream, and bake for 12 mins at 160°C.


2 - Grapefruit Cream (with Gelcrem Cold)

Method: Mix all ingredients and blend for two minutes. Chill for one hour, then blend again to achieve maximum shine and a smooth texture.


3 - Mascarpone Mousse

Method: Heat the milk with the gelatine, add the mascarpone, and pour over the melted chocolate. Blend. Gently fold in the semi-whipped cream.


4 - Final Assembly

Pipe the grapefruit cream into insert moulds and freeze. Place the frozen insert into a larger silicone mould, cover with mascarpone mousse, and freeze. Unmould, glaze with neutral glaze, and place on the baked tartlet shell. Decorate with fresh grapefruit segments.
