- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
For the Mango Curd:
- 1 ripe mango, puréed (about ½ cup) 🥭
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
For the Miso Caramel:
- ¼ cup (50g) brown sugar
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tsp white miso paste
- Pinch of flaky sea salt

🧑🍳 Instructions & Methods
🥭 1. Make the Mango Curd (Golden Heart)
Method of the Sun-Kissed Lovers:
In a small saucepan, combine mango purée, egg yolks, sugar, and lime juice. Cook over low heat, whisking constantly until it thickens (about 4–5 minutes). Do not boil.
Remove from heat, stir in butter until glossy. Cool and refrigerate.
Lover’s Note: This curd is the “heart” of your cloud—sweet, tart, silky. Let it cool, like love that matures in silence.
🍮 2. Make the Miso Caramel (Salty Soul)
Method of the Bold Lovers:
Melt brown sugar and butter together in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once it starts to bubble, slowly add cream and miso. Whisk vigorously until smooth and silky. Let it cool and thicken slightly.
Lover’s Note: Miso is the unexpected kiss. It hits you where you least expect, then lingers.
🍥 3. Make the Meringue (Floating Shells)
Method of the Gentle Lovers:
In a clean bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar and salt until soft peaks form.
Gradually add sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, beating until stiff, glossy peaks rise. Fold in vanilla.
On a parchment-lined tray, spoon meringue into cloud shapes, creating gentle hollows in the center for filling later.
Lover’s Note: Meringue is the loyal one—fragile yet strong. Treat it with care and it gives you magic.
🔥 4. Bake the Clouds
Preheat your oven to 110°C (230°F). Bake meringues for 1 hour.
Then, turn off the oven and let them cool inside (door closed) for another hour. This keeps the outer shell crisp and the inside chewy.
Lover’s Note: Like the best kind of love—it sets slowly, never rushed, and leaves a lasting impression.
🌪️ 5. Assemble the Storm
Once meringues are completely cool, spoon mango curd and miso caramel into the center of each meringue shell.
Use a toothpick to swirl gently—creating a marble effect.
Optional: Dust with powdered sugar, sprinkle sesame seeds, or top with micro-mango cubes.
Lover’s Note: The swirl is your fingerprint—the way you leave your signature on sweetness.
📜 Formation & History
Meringue dates back to 17th-century Europe, where whipped egg whites and sugar became the symbol of elegance. But this dish borrows also from Japanese culinary balance, where umami from miso adds depth to sweetness.
Tropical mango curd, the essence of sun-drenched lands, brings warmth to the ethereal shell—making this dessert a fusion of earth and sky, old and new, daring and delicate.
