Instructions

  1. Combine blackberry puree, blackberry juice, water, sugar, agar-agar powder, lemon juice, and salt in a saucepan. Heat while stirring until fully dissolved and bring to a gentle simmer.
  2. Pour the mixture into dome-shaped silicone molds, filling each cavity halfway. Refrigerate until slightly set.
  3. Whip mascarpone cheese, heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, vanilla bean paste, and sweetened condensed milk until smooth and fluffy. Transfer to a piping bag.
  4. Pipe a small mound of vanilla cream into the center of each partially set dome. Cover with the remaining blackberry mixture and refrigerate until fully set and crystal clear.
  5. Carefully unmold the domes onto a chilled serving tray.
  6. Warm blackberry jelly, water, honey, and lemon juice until smooth. Stir in edible silver luster dust until evenly blended. Allow to cool slightly while remaining pourable.
  7. Pour or brush the silver mirror glaze over each dome, coating completely for a reflective finish.
  8. Garnish with fresh blackberries, edible silver pearls, and white chocolate curls. Serve well chilled.
