The method
Step by step
- 1
In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the gelatin water and let it bloom for 5 minutes until softened.
About 5 min
Cook’s note: Ensure the water is at room temperature to prevent the gelatin from clumping.
- 2
Place the bloomed gelatin mixture into a double boiler or a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved and clear.
About 3 min
Cook’s note: Do not let the water boil vigorously, as this can denature the gelatin.
- 3
In a blender, combine the pudding base mango, evaporated milk, and granulated sugar. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
About 2 min
Cook’s note: For an extra smooth texture, you can pass the mango puree through a fine-mesh sieve.
- 4
Add the dissolved gelatin to the mango mixture in the blender and blend again briefly to combine.
About 1 min
Cook’s note: Ensure the gelatin mixture is still warm but not hot when adding to prevent it from setting too quickly.
- 5
Pour the mango pudding mixture into individual serving molds or a large serving bowl.
About 1 min
Cook’s note: Lightly oiling the molds beforehand can help with easy removal once set.
- 6
Refrigerate the pudding for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
About 4 hr
Cook’s note: For best results, chill overnight.

Before serving, garnish with the diced garnish mango.
