30% pate a bomb (40% sugar : 60% yolk)

30% cream, whipped

30% puree (including any acids, alcohol, etc. used to enhance the fruit)

10% sugar

I usually add a bit of gelatin (.3% - .4%) as a stabilizer and minor adjustments to the ratios are sometimes required depending on the fruit but it works as a good starting point.

It's kinda like wrestling a gorilla... you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is tired.
