Fruit Blanc Mange

Blanc mange can be made up to 2 days ahead. Once set, cover molds with plastic wrap and refrigerate. The dessert actually improves after a day as the starch fully hydrates and the texture becomes more cohesive. Unmold just before serving.

Store unmolded blanc mange covered with plastic wrap in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If already unmolded, place in an airtight container. The texture will gradually weep liquid (syneresis) after 2 days but remains safe to eat. Do not freeze, as the starch will break down and become grainy upon thawing.
