Prepare the mango puree: Place the 400 g of fresh mango flesh in a food processor or blender. Blend until it is completely smooth, with no lumps or fibrous bits. Measure out 300 g of this puree for the mousse. (The remaining 50 g will be used for the mirror glaze.)
Heat the puree: Pour the 300 g of mango puree into a small saucepan. Add the 40 g of granulated sugar. Heat the mixture over low flame, stirring constantly, just until the sugar has completely dissolved. Remove from the heat immediately and set aside to cool until it reaches 55°C (131°F).
Bloom and melt the gelatin: While the puree is cooling, place the 15 g of gelatin sheets in a bowl of cold water. Let them soak for 5-10 minutes until they are fully softened. Once the puree has cooled to 55°C, remove the gelatin sheets from the water, squeeze firmly to remove any excess water, and add them to the warm puree. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
Whip the cream: In a separate, clean mixing bowl, add the 220 g of chilled heavy cream. Using a hand mixer or a whisk, whip the cream until it reaches a thick, yogurt-like consistency. It should hold a soft trail when drizzled but still be fluid, not stiff.
Combine to make the mousse: Pour the mango-gelatin mixture into the whipped cream. Use a silicone spatula to gently fold everything together until the mixture is uniform and no streaks of cream remain. Be careful not to overmix, as you want to keep the mousse light and airy.
Assemble the first layer: Pour the mango mousse onto the prepared biscuit base. Gently tap the mold on the counter a few times to release any large air bubbles. Place the mold in the freezer for 20 minutes to allow the mousse layer to set just enough to support the next layer.
