Summer fruit salad with verbena x Grapefruit whipped cream

This post is also available in: Français (French)

it’s been a little while since I wanted to offer you a fruit salad full of freshness and exoticism but you are starting to know the house, we will not settle for simple fruits pieces.

In the list of seasonal fruits, I came across grapefruit, I had the idea to use empty shells of these that are large enough to make a bowl. I also wanted to push the grapefruit theme and an extra gluttony, hence the grapefruit whipped cream. My fear was that the whipped cream would be too liquid with this acidic juice but the test was passed the first time.

With all this sweetness, it was still necessary to bring another texture to have another dimension, so I thought of adding plain cornflakes inside and pomegranate seeds outside for the crunchy side and here we are!
