Method

  • step 1

    Beat together the mascarpone, double cream, coconut cream, icing sugar and rum using an electric whisk until thick enough to leave a prominent trail when you turn it off and lift it, then fold through the lime zest.

  • step 2

    Make the soaking liquid by stirring together the mango juice, lime juice and rum in a jug, then pour into a shallow bowl.

  • step 3

    Get a medium dish ready (about 30 x 20cm). Dip half the sponge fingers in the soaking liquid for about 10 seconds on each side and place in a single layer in the dish, then drizzle over 3-4 tbsp of the liquid. Top with a layer of half the mascarpone cream, then a layer of sliced mango (using about half). Repeat with the remaining sponges, mascarpone cream, and mango slices. Chill for at least 5 hrs, or preferably overnight. Just before serving, sprinkle over the flaked coconut and lime zest curls.

Don’t use coconut cream if making this in the UK, it not the same as coconut cream as sold in the US. In the US, coconut cream is a smooth product with the texture of double cream, in the UK it is a solid fatty lump of coconut solids that has the consistency of lard that has been in the fridge, you…

Coconut cream/milk would be fine. I think you’re thinking of coconut oil

Hi, thanks for your question. For an alcohol-free alternative you can use orange juice. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.
