    My family loves mini desserts for parties. Some of our favorites include Chocolate Pudding, Mango Panna Cotta, and this delicious and gluten-free Blancmange.

    Creamy, rich blancmange can be prepared ahead of time and served as an elegant dessert any time of the year. Flavors such as strawberry, raspberry, and chocolate give this classic dessert a modern and delicious twist.

    What is Blancmange?

    Blancmange is a sweet and flavored dessert similar to panna cotta. It’s usually made with milk and starchy or gelatinous ingredients. Traditionally it has a white color and served cold.

    Ingredients You’ll Need

    • Salt
    • Vanilla Extract
    • Milk

    How to Make Blancmange

    1. Add milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla to a saucepan over medium heat. Bring it to a boil, and remove it from heat, and set aside.
    2. Add cornflour to a medium bowl. Then gradually add about 1 cup of the milk mixture. Mix until thoroughly combined.
    3. Add the flour mixture back to the remaining milk mixture in the saucepan over low-medium heat.
    4. Stir occasionally until the mixture has thickened. Remove from heat. Let it cool down.

    6. Pour the mixture into the mold.
    7. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm for about 6 hours or overnight. Serve and enjoy!

    Tips for the Perfect Blancmange

    • Spray the mold with cooking spray for easy unmolding.
    • Use the correct ratio between cornflour and milk.
    • Allow enough time to chill before unmolding: Letting the blancmange cool before unmolding will help the dessert to set and hold its shape before serving.

    Can I Make It Ahead of Time?

    Blancmange can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the fridge for a couple of days.
