Mango Pudding

Grace Lee made this delicious Mango Pudding with the guidance from Tanni and Heidy. Heidy brought a Mango Pudding during a Gilmore Community Kitchen potluck and the recipe was shared with other members of the Gilmore community kitchen.

This Mango Pudding is very rich in mango flavour and the addition of whipping cream made it extra rich. If you are watching your diet, you may just substitute the whipping cream with milk or cold water to make it less sinful.

    Hi, is this recipe calling for 15ml unflavoured gelatine in total or 45ml unflavoured gelatine?
    Is one package = 15 ml or 5 ml?
    Thanks

    1. Lulu

      I suggest you to use 3 packages of gelatine.
      I tried it many times and it taste delicious!
      Good luck on trying it (:

    Hi Quinn, I do not have any Knox unflavoured gelatine on hand at the moment. I cant recall if 1 envelope is 5ml or 15ml. But I’m sure that the recipe calls for 3 envelopes of unflavoured gelatine.

  8. Quinn

    i googled, and it says one envelope of gelatine = 7g
    And yours stated 15g of gelatine….
    Hmmmm, I guess I’ll stick with 15g of gelatine and if it’s too diluted, I’ll dilute more and use up 21g of gelatine.
    what do you say?
    I need your opinion on this, thanks!

  9. Quinn

    Hey, I found on one site and it says one envelope of Knox Gelatine contains 7g. So, 3 envelopes gotta be 21g.I dunno how you end up with 15ml though.
    Maybe 15ml=7g , I dunno!
    However, thanks for helping me out though
    I’m not making mango pudding with this recipe, will tell you what I intend to do.
    Meanwhile, I do have a hand-me-down mango pudding recipe that uses ice cream. Do drop by my blog and see. It’s slightly healthier than this I would say, hehe!

    This pudding is absolutely delicious. I love it, my children love it, the grandchildren love it, I recently took it to a potluck and everyone wanted the recipe. Hey guys dont worry about the number of mls it says 3pkgs so just go ahead and use 3 pkgs it works perfectly.

  11. Chef Ron

    Hello guys. You can use Ferna Clear and Unflavored Gelatin which is packed in 50 grams box which contains 5 pcs of envelopes (10 grams each). For this recipe try to use 1 envelope or 10 grams or 1 tbsp Ferna Clear and Unflavored Gelatin

    Hi, I was wondering how much this recipe yields.. I have a 1.4L serving pan and was wondering if it will fill up nicely (so it will not overflow or look half empty). Thanks!

    1. Suanne

      Hi Flown, the volume of the pulp, water and cream alone is 1500ml (1.5L). I usually made it in a 15×11″ baking tray. What you can do is use the 1.4L serving pan and if there is any excess, you can pour it into a another smaller container for your own treat.

  13. Ms.

    what if i dont wanna use geletin? what’s the alternate for it? Can I use Corn flour?

    1. Suanne

      Hi Ms, you may substitute gelatin with agar-agar (a seedweed product) to set the pudding. I’m not sure if the texture will be exactly the same.

  14. jonnek

    I tried this recipe but unfortunately I followed the instructions on the gelatin box(Knox). It says to use 1 package per 500 ml pulp. So I used 2 packages for the 1 liter pulp. The darn thing didn’t set. I should have followed the instructions you posted. Oh well, we’ll have to try it again.

  15. Elaine

    I made this and it was super good! But I made a mistake by leaving the gelatin mix for too long so there were clumps of gelatin in my mango pudding =___= what’s an optimal time for letting the mix cool? 5 minutes?

    I added kiwis and mangos on top and it looked really good and tasted better too =D strawberries would be great too!

    1. Suanne

      Hi Elaine, the clumps could be due to too much mixing as stated in this site: http://www.baking911.com/howto/gelatin.htm (DISSOLVE: If using granular gelatin: clarified vegetable or meat stock, wine, vegetable juices and seafood broths.) This is called “Bloom & Dissolve”, a term used to for the softening step where the gelatin absorbs the water and swells. After sprinkling the gelatin, do not stir as it will lump.) What you can do is to dissolve the sugar in the boiling water first, then add in the gelatin to let it bloom for 5 minutes. Hope this works better.

    I WILL TRY THIS! I love mango pudding..might make this for my boyfriend.

  18. Samantha

    How many serving is this?

  19. Suanne

    Hi Samantha, I would say it will serve 6 to 8.

  20. Samantha

    I made this for my family and everybody loved it! Thank you so much for an easy to make and delicious pudding!

  21. Samantha

    By the way, I reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup and it was perfect for my taste.

  22. bizzymama109

    I didn’t even notice the 15g, 3 packages. I’ve made this recipe several times over the last few years with 3 packages x 7g and it comes out perfectly. Everyone raves about this mango pudding as it is just like, if not better than the restaurants. I use about two mangos cut into small chunks. I also make minis in tupperware snack cups and put them into my kids’ lunches with an ice pack. Healthy and delicious! Thanks for this recipe.

    Can u substitute the whipping cream with evaporated milk? Has anyone tried making it with coconut milk?

    1. Suanne

      Hi L., I’m sure you can substitute the whipping cream with evaporated milk or coconut milk. Coconut milk will impart a richer flavour.

    2. Bizzymama109

      I have made it with evaporated milk several times. I open two cans and serve with the extras as topping. Or sometimes I use one can of evaporated milk/coconut milk, and the rest regular milk. It always comes out delicious and gets many compliments from all. I don’t find the coconut milk changes the taste too much.

  24. Lea

    Hello! I have some fresh mangoes that I would like to puree to use in place of the mango pulp. Do you think the recipe would still work out?

    1. suannechowtimes

      Hi Lea, fresh mangoes should work and taste better.

  25. Anna

    Hi,
    I came back to search for the recipe to add it into my RECIPE KEEPER app And glad it’s still here cuz it’s definitely a keeper. I’ve been using this recipe for many years as is (3 packets of Knox gelatine) and it’s very forgiving.. I use a combo of half and half, evaporated and or whipping cream. In other words, whatever I have on hand.
    I add frozen chopped mango pieces to it to give it some extra texture. It’s always a favourite dessert. Thanks again!
