Assembly and finishing

RASPBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE TWIST RECIPE

Make the whipped ganache and raspberry confit. Beat some of the whipped ganache to give it an airy texture (500g).

Fill 5cm-diameter half-sphere silicone molds with 18g of whipped ganache, then place the molds in the freezer for a few minutes.

Using a melon baller, dig out the center of the whipped ganache, smooth the half-spheres if necessary, then freeze them.

Arrange 18g of pressed shortbread in a 5cm- diameter ring and press down lightly.

Remove from the ring immediately and repeat as many times as required.

Store these rounds in the freezer.

Roll shards of pressed shortbread in a small amount of gold sparkling powder.

Store away from humidity.

Turn out the half-spheres of whipped ganache and place them on the pressed shortcrust pastry rounds.

Use a spray gun to apply spray mix onto the desserts to create a velvet effect.

For the chocolate decorations:

Fill a piping bag with tempered white chocolate.

On a sheet of dipping paper, make 5 to 6cm-diameter rings of couverture chocolate.

Sprinkle with pieces of browned shortbread, top with a second sheet of dipping paper, and gently flatten using a rolling pin.

Leave to set.

Whip the second portion of whipped ganache (650g) to give it an airy texture and transfer it to a piping bag with a plain round 16mm-diameter nozzle, then store in the refrigerator.

Using a dab of whipped ganache, stick a velvet-textured round to the center of the plate.

Fill the center of the half-sphere with fresh raspberry confit.

Set a chocolate ring on the half-sphere.

Using the piping bag, place a droplet of whipped ganache (25g) on the confit.

Arrange dabs of confit on the plate.

Decorate the droplet with a few pieces of browned shortbread and raspberry crispies.
