Assembly and finishing
SQ OPALYS 33%
SQ Fresh strawberries
Make the namelaka, strawberry confit, streusel and coconut sorbet.
Make the sponge, then spread into 18 Å~ 18cm frames placed on top of a tray lined with a silicone baking mat. Bake at 355ÅãF (180ÅãC) for 20 to 25 minutes.
Spread the tempered OPALYS between two guitar sheets bearing your logo.
When the couverture starts to set, use a cutter to cut into egg-shaped rings with an outer diameter of 7cm and an inner diameter of 5cm. Leave to set at 60ÅãF (16ÅãC).
Use a stencil to help you spread a 14cm egg-shaped ring of (approx. 10g) strawberry confit onto the center of the plate.
Use a piping bag with an open star nozzle to pipe 30g of OPALYS namelaka onto the rounded part of the egg.
Use a piping bag (no nozzle required) to pipe 8g of strawberry confit onto the center of the namelaka.
Cut out three 1.5 Å~ 1.5cm cubes of pistachio sponge and place on the dessert (see photo).
Place 8g of baked streusel on one side of the dessert. Wash the strawberries and cut into quarters.
Place three pieces of fresh strawberry on the dessert, as well as three sliced freeze-dried strawberries.
