  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 1/2 tsp agar-agar powder

Instructions

  1. Combine orange juice, lemon juice, lime juice, water, sugar, agar-agar powder, lemon zest, and salt in a saucepan. Heat while stirring until fully dissolved and bring to a gentle simmer.
  2. Pour the mixture into diamond-shaped dome silicone molds, filling each cavity halfway. Refrigerate until partially set.
  3. Whip cream cheese, mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, orange zest, lemon juice, and vanilla bean paste until smooth, light, and fluffy. Transfer to a piping bag.
  4. Pipe a generous amount of citrus cheesecake filling into the center of each partially set dome. Cover with the remaining citrus mixture and refrigerate until fully set and crystal clear.
  5. Carefully unmold the domes onto a chilled serving platter.
  6. Warm orange marmalade, honey, water, lemon juice, and lime juice until smooth and glossy. Allow to cool slightly while remaining pourable.
  7. Brush or drizzle the glaze over each dome to create a brilliant crystal mirror finish.
  8. Garnish with candied citrus slices, white chocolate curls, edible gold flakes, pearl dust, and fresh mint leaves.
  9. Serve thoroughly chilled for a bright, zesty citrus cheesecake with a jewel-like shimmer.
