    One of my beautybeyondfiftiy ladies invited us for her husband 6…and counting bday get together. Of course, I readily looked at my fridge and think what flavour I should bake? I found Pomegranate, heaven! I like this fruit including the seeds 🙂

    I cut three pieces, hence I don’t have a juicer, I just boiled it with 3 tablespoon water and 1/4 cup sugar. And de-seeds it with a strainer then add 1 tsp of cornstarch. The puree is enough for one mini cheesecake only.

    I used Mascarpone (Italian cheese) so its fluffy and soft.
