Print Recipe

A stunning twist on the classic Italian dessert, this Aurora Borealis Panna Cotta features vibrant, swirling colors inspired by the Northern Lights. Delicately sweet and creamy, it’s an elegant treat perfect for impressing guests.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 tsp unflavored gelatin
  • 3 tbsp cold water
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Food coloring (blue, green, purple, pink)
  • Edible shimmer dust or glitter (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let sit for 5-10 minutes to bloom.
  2. In a saucepan, combine heavy cream, milk, and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved and mixture is hot but not boiling.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
  4. Add vanilla extract and stir to combine.
  5. Divide the mixture into several small bowls and tint each with different food coloring (blue, green, purple, pink).
  6. In serving glasses or molds, pour small amounts of each colored mixture, layering and swirling slightly to create an Aurora effect. Optional: add edible shimmer for sparkle.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
  8. Serve chilled. Optionally, garnish with edible glitter or whipped cream.

Notes

  • To intensify colors, use gel food coloring.
  • Use clear serving glasses to showcase the beautiful swirls.
  • Don’t over-swirl colors to avoid muddiness.
