Instructions:
- In a small bowl, combine the gelatin powder with 1/4 cup of cold water. Stir well and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.

- Place the saucepan over medium heat and continue whisking for about 3-4 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened slightly and the sugar is fully dissolved.
- Add the bloomed gelatin to the egg yolk mixture and stir continuously for another 2-3 minutes until the gelatin is fully dissolved and well incorporated.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and gently stir in the passionfruit pulp until well combined. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
- In a clean mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the egg whites until they form stiff peaks.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled passionfruit mixture until just combined.
- Next, carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the mixture. Make sure to do this gently to maintain the fluffy texture.
- Spoon the mixture into serving glasses or bowls and smooth the tops.
