Venezuelan Passion Fruit Delight Recipe — Cold, No-Bake Dessert

This Venezuelan passion fruit delight comes together in just 10 minutes with three ingredients, whipping evaporated milk, condensed milk, and passion fruit concentrate into a light, mousse-like dessert. Creamy, tangy-sweet, and bursting with tropical flavor, it’s impossible to resist.

Two glass cups filled with creamy passion fruit mousse, each garnished with a sprig of fresh mint, placed on a white surface with utensils beside them.

It’s the perfect make-ahead treat for hot summer days, and since it’s naturally gluten-free, everyone at the table can dig in.

Raised on Carnation

Growing up in Venezuela basically means growing up on evaporated milk. In my house it was always Carnation®, the same can with the red carnation that lived in my mom’s pantry, and my grandmother’s before that.

It for t went into everything: ponche crema, quesillo, that never-fails-to-impress tres leches. Just the sight of that white tin was enough to know something good was coming.

These days I keep it around for the same reason they did. This time I reached for the lactose-free version, in that resealable carton, every bit as creamy as the original.

Enjoy it!

How to Make Passion Fruit Delight

Two glass dessert cups of creamy dessert garnished with fresh mint leaves, placed on a white marble surface next to a pair of silver spoons
  1. Freeze the evaporated milk. Just until it turns slushy, never a solid block.
  2. Whip the evaporated milk. Beat at medium speed until it doubles in volume.
  3. Add the condensed milk and passion fruit concentrate. Keep beating until the mixture turns smooth, airy, and creamy all at once.
  4. Serve. Spoon into individual glasses right away.

Tip: If you’re not serving right away, keep it in the freezer, but no longer than an hour so it doesn’t firm up and lose that light, airy texture.

FAQs

Did You Know?

Passion fruit gets its English name from Passiflora, the Latin name for the passion flower. Spanish and Portuguese Jesuit missionaries in South America saw symbols of Christ’s Passion in the flower’s unusual anatomy, and the botanist Carl Linnaeus adopted that name in his official plant classification in 1753.
