Description
Infuse your dessert menu with the exotic allure of Irca Lilly Mango Mousse Mix. Distributed by ChickenPieces.com from our Calgary logistics hub, this 1 KG professional-grade mix is the ultimate solution for high-end patisserie. Formulated by the master blenders at Irca in Italy, the Lilly range provides a reliable, high-yield foundation that captures the intense aroma and golden hue of real mango, ensuring your mousses maintain a clean cut and velvety mouthfeel.
Why It Works
- Intense Tropical Flavor: Contains dehydrated mango to deliver a natural, sun-drenched flavor and vibrant golden color without artificial additives.
- Superior Structural Integrity: Specifically designed to hold its shape in layered cakes (entremets) and domes, providing a sharp, professional cut that stays stable at room temperature.
- Freeze-Thaw Stable: Ideal for professional production; prepare your desserts in advance, freeze them for easy glazing, and thaw without any syneresis (weeping).
- Efficient 2-Step Preparation: Simply whisk the mix with water (or puree) and fold into semi-whipped cream. Eliminates the need for blooming gelatin or complex tempering.
- Versatile Texture: Depending on the amount of cream used, you can achieve everything from a light, airy mousse to a denser, richer Bavarian cream.
- Fast Calgary Logistics: Stocked locally in Alberta, we provide rapid, tracked shipping across Canada to keep your pastry station stocked for the season.
Use Cases
- Modern Dome Desserts: Perfect for silicone mold applications; once frozen, the mango mousse unmolds cleanly with high-definition detail.
- Layered Entremets: Use as a tropical contrast layer against coconut dacquoise or white chocolate ganache for a sophisticated flavor profile.
- Verrines & Shoppers: Create elegant, layered cup desserts for banquets that remain stable and vibrant on a buffet line for hours.
- Pastry Fillings: Lighten up heavy cake layers by using mango mousse as a refreshing, fruit-forward filling.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the standard mixing ratio for Lilly Mango?
The professional standard ratio is 200g of Lilly Mango Mix + 200g of water (room temperature) + 1 liter of semi-whipped unsweetened cream. Whisk the mix and water together until smooth, then gently fold in the cream for a stable, airy mousse.
Can I use this for frozen desserts?
Yes! The Lilly range is highly regarded for being "semifreddo" friendly. It maintains a creamy texture even at low temperatures, making it excellent for frozen mousse cakes or ice cream sandwiches.
Is this product suitable for vegetarians?
The Irca Lilly fruit range typically uses bovine gelatin as its primary stabilizer. While it is free from pork, it is generally not suitable for vegetarian or vegan diets. Please check the ingredient list on the physical bag for specific gelatin source verification.
How long does it take to set?
For piping or cup service, it will begin to set within 30-60 minutes. For entremets and domes that require glazing, we recommend a full freeze (4-6 hours) to ensure the surface is perfectly smooth for a mirror glaze.
Does it contain real fruit?
Yes, Lilly Mango is formulated with dehydrated mango to ensure that the primary flavor notes are authentic and aromatic, rather than purely synthetic.
