Instructions

Working time approx. 25 minutes; Rest time approx. 3 hours; Total time approx. 3 hours 25 minutes

Soak the gelatin in cold water. Bring the milk to a boil with the gingerbread spice, cocoa, and honey, then remove from the heat. Dissolve the gelatin, which has been soaked in cold water and then squeezed out, in the milk and chill. Whip the cream with the vanilla sugar until stiff. As soon as the milk begins to set, carefully fold in the cream. Chill the mousse for 3-4 hours. Segment 2 oranges and reserve the juice. Squeeze the remaining orange. Using two spoons, form the mousse into dumplings. Serve the dumplings with the orange segments, orange juice, and, if desired, star fruit slices.
