What it is
Sweetened sheep ricotta cream, blended smooth and frozen in a 6 kg food bucket. The product is a ready pastry base with 30% sugar and the milk allergen from sheep's milk. Thaw it before use and pipe or spread it in the final preparation.
Supplier reference and format
The supplier reference includes RIC and identifies a 6 kg bucket of sweetened frozen sheep ricotta cream. The professional format is one food bucket, suited to batch pastry production.
Organoleptic profile
After thawing, expect a smooth, velvety cream with the clean dairy character of sheep ricotta and a pre-sweetened profile. Its consistent texture is suited to piping, filling and layering. The final sweetness can be balanced with fruit, cocoa, chocolate or citrus.
Professional uses and portions
Use it for cannoli, cassata, cheesecake, tarts and spoon desserts. For a filled pastry, 80 to 120 g of cream per individual dessert is a practical starting point; adjust the quantity to the shell and recipe. Incorporate chocolate chips or candied fruit only after the cream is smooth.
Common mistakes to avoid
Do not work the cream while it is still frozen, overheat it or refreeze it after thawing. Avoid adding sugar before tasting because the base is already sweetened. Mix additions gently so the cream stays smooth, and do not leave it at room temperature during service.
Storage and handling
Keep the product frozen at -18 C for up to 18 months. After thawing, keep it at 0-2 C for up to 7 days and do not refreeze. Thaw only the quantity needed for planned production, use clean utensils and keep the bucket closed when it is not being portioned. Contains milk from sheep.
