Critical Success Points

  • Cooking the custard to exactly 83‑85 °C without overheating
  • Coating the crushed wafer evenly with chocolate and praliné
  • Forming intact half‑sphere shells that are thin yet sturdy
  • Assembling the halves without breaking the shells
  • Glazing the rochers before the chocolate sets

Safety Warnings

  • Hot custard can cause severe burns – handle with care
  • Use a thermometer to avoid curdling the custard
  • Sharp tools (knife, kitchen scissors) should be handled cautiously
  • Chocolate can be very hot when melted; stir gently to prevent splatter
