Some inspiring recipes
How to create ruby chocolate mousse, ice creams and more?
For numerous dessert recipes – such as chocolate mousse, ice cream, sauce, etc. – chocolate is often mixed with wet ingredients or liquids to obtain a perfect taste and texture.
Watch out
When mixing ruby RB1 with liquid ingredients such as cream or milk, you may experience its natural colour to fade or turn grey. This is normal: diluting ruby RB1 changes the pH and causes the colour change. Restoring the pH however can help you tune the colour precisely to the typical ruby colour.
How to remedy?
Add acidity from fruits (e.g. fruit purees, lime juice, etc.) to restore the original pH
The original ruby colour will return when achieving pH 3.3 – 3.8
AND/OR
Add colour through natural ingredients: e.g. from dried flower petals (rose, hibiscus) or dried beetroot, raspberries…
On top: you create interesting pairings, bringing out great flavour experiences.
