This idea is absolutely delicious - but
can be so much more simple than described. I used layers of chopped fresh mango/pineapple/strawberries,
with lightly sweetened whipped cream,
and cubed yellow cake drizzled with
dark rum. I topped with the coconut
and macadamia nuts - lightly toasted.
Served to guests in individual martini
glasses with a decorative starfruit slice on top. Beautiful, Easy and SO Delicious!!

I saw this show on TV and the following Sat I was expecting guests. I decided to try this. This was truly a hit. My husband loved it too.

The only recommendation I have is that the Pastry cream made out of the recommended quantity is way too much. I used only 1/4 of it and freezed the rest. Even the mangoo puree was used only half quantity.

Overall, I would give a thumbs up

Thanks FoodTV

This recipe was so poorly explained in terms of how to actually make the mango puree (more like mango curd.
Putting all ingredients in a pot and cooking it until bubbly does not describe the way to combine them or at what temperature to cook them. UGH! I ended up wasting a delicious, fresh mango, not to mention over a half a pound of butter and nearly a dozen eggs. What a shame! It ended up tasting like fruity scrambled eggs.
