Step-by-Step Instructions

Sprinkle unflavored powdered gelatin over a small bowl of cold water and let it bloom for about 5 minutes.
In a medium saucepan, combine heavy whipping cream and whole milk over medium heat. Gently heat until warm but not boiling, about 5 minutes.
Add granulated sugar and vanilla extract. Stir until fully dissolved, about 2 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved, about 1 minute.
Allow the mixture to cool for about 10-15 minutes before gently folding in whipped cream.
Pour the mixture into molds, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set.
To serve, unmold the Bavarian cream and top with fresh seasonal berries.
