  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 1/2 tsp agar-agar powder
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • For the Dream Cheesecake Mousse:
  • 8 oz mascarpone cheese
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • For the Strawberry Lava Center:
  • 1/2 cup strawberry preserves
  • 2 tbsp strawberry puree
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • For Garnish (optional):

  • Edible silver shimmer

Instructions

  1. Combine strawberry puree, strawberry 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, coating the sides and filling each cavity halfway. Refrigerate until partially set.
  3. Whip mascarpone cheese, heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla bean paste until light, smooth, and fluffy. Transfer to a piping bag.
  4. In a small bowl, stir together strawberry preserves, strawberry puree, honey, and lemon juice to create the lava filling. Chill until slightly thickened.
  5. Pipe a layer of cheesecake mousse into each partially set shell. Add a small spoonful of strawberry lava filling in the center, then cover with additional mousse. Seal with the remaining strawberry mixture and refrigerate until fully set.
  6. Carefully unmold the domes onto a chilled serving platter.
  7. Warm strawberry preserves, honey, water, and lemon juice until smooth and glossy. Allow to cool slightly while remaining pourable.
  8. Brush or drizzle the crystal glaze over each dome to create a dazzling glass-like shine.
  9. Garnish with fresh strawberries, white chocolate curls, edible pearl dust, and silver shimmer.
  10. Serve thoroughly chilled. When sliced, the luscious strawberry lava center will flow from the creamy dream filling for a stunning dessert presentation.
