  • 100 g Crispy Crunchies
  • 50 g Roasted peanuts
  • 0.5 g Sea salt

PROCESS

  1. Melt the gianduja at 35°C, add in the rest of the ingredients and mix correctly.

V. BLACK COCOA BUTTER

  • 300 g Deodorized Cocoa Butter
  • 5 g Vegan charcoal powder

VI. CHOCOLATE HAY

  • 190 g Obsession 30 Belgian white chocolate
  • 10 g Intense 35 Belgian milk couverture chocolate

  1. With the white chocolate mixed with the milk chocolate following the tempering curve of 40-45/26-27/29-30°C, pipe thin line on paper and let set.
  2. Cut irregular sticks.

VII. ASSEMBLY

After making the gianduja, fill the different egg shells (white and blondy) and assemble appropriate colors together to obtain filled eggs shapes. Using the black cocoa butter preparation, spray eggs with very low pressure to make dots and let set. In the bottom of the dark chocolate shell from the MA6100 mould, spread regularly 40 g of crispy gianduja and stick on top of the filled eggs over the entire length. Dipose chocolate hay all around.

Alternatively you can create the same composition using the 3D EGGS from LEMAN decoration ref 69475 and 69480. Make a hole and fill the inside with gianduja using a piping bag.
