Critical Success Points

  • Achieve a firm meringue without over‑beating the whites.
  • Reach an amber caramel colour without burning.
  • Cook the egg yolks to 83‑84°C to avoid premature coagulation.
  • Cool the crème before incorporating the butter.
  • Cool the glaze to exactly 35°C before pouring.
  • The heart must be very cold before the mirror glaze.

Safety Warnings

  • The caramel and glaze are very hot; wear kitchen gloves.
  • Use a thermometer to avoid overheating the egg yolks.
  • The torch produces an intense flame; handle it at a safe distance.
