Coconut & Banana pudding filling for cake

As I promised, here's a recipe for coconut and banana pudding filling for cake. You can also use it for cupcakes and other pastry. I used it in contrast with cacao cake batter.




Ingredients;


     Coconut filling:
  • 2 cups of plain yogurt
  • 1.102 lb (500 g) of mascarpone cheese
  • 0.8454 pt (400 ml) of double cream
  • 6 tbsp of crystal sugar
  • 0.7055 oz (20 g) of instant jelly powder
  • 0.4409 lb (200 g) of coconut flour
    Banana pudding filling:
  • 0.1764 lb (80 g) of banana pudding powder mix
  • 3 tsp of cream stabilizer or instant jelly powder
  • 2.113 cups (1/2 l) of milk
  • 8 – 10 tbsp of milk
  • 6 – 10 tbsp of crystal sugar
  • 4 tbsp of powdered sugar
  • 0.5512 lb (250 g) of mascarpone cheese
  • 1 drop of yellow edible color
  • 3 small bananas 

 Procedure;


Coconut filling:
  1. In a bowl whip double cream with electronic mixer.
  2. In another bowl mix together yogurt, mascarpone cheese and crystal sugar with whisk. While you are mixing, add instant jelly powder. Mix until it is smooth.
  3. To this mixture add previously whipped double cream and coconut flour. Stir until the mixture is creamy.
  4. Evenly distribute coconut filling on top of cake batter or other pastry. TIP: For more cake layers or bigger cake batters double the ingredients.


Banana pudding filling:
  1. Mix banana pudding powder with 6 – 10 spoons of crystal sugar (depends on how sweet you want it) and 8 – 10 spoons of milk until the mixture is smooth (TIP: More sugar and powder you have more spoons of milk you will need.). Boil milk in the pot on medium heat. Take pot off the stove and mix in the banana pudding mixture. Reduce the heat and put pot back on. Stir gently so that pudding doesn't stick to the pot. While stirring, add powdered sugar (make sure you sift it before adding it). When pudding is thick, turn off the heat.
  2. Add cream stabilizer or instant jelly powder to the warm pudding and mix it in. Let it cool to room temperature and then mix in mascarpone cheese. Stir until mixture is creamy and smooth.
  3. In case of cake, evenly distribute half of banana pudding filling on a layer of cake batter. Then cut bananas to little slices and put them on the filling. Cover banana slices with the rest of the filling. TIP: In my case I added bananas to coconut filling since the banana pudding was so thick. But you can play around with other fillings that go with it like chocolate ganache, etc.

Voila. Bon Appétit!
