VII. ASSEMBLING

  • Fill the mold ( Silikomart ref: Bloom 120) with the dark caramel mousse by covering correctly the side shape, then push inside the frozen caramelized apple passion till there is 5 mm extra space on the top, then close with mousse and freeze.
  • Unmold, dip in the chocolate shell, let it set and dip in the glaze before the condensation comes out on the surface of the shell.
  • Dispose on the roasted almond base.
  • Decorate with black CHOCODECOR to do the stem and White CHOCODECOR to do the blossom flower.
