Critical Success Points

  • Chill the dough in the refrigerator (1 h)
  • Blind bake with ceramic beads
  • Complete cooling of the chocolate cream before filling
  • Reach exactly 118°C for the sugar syrup
  • Cool the meringue below 50°C before piping
  • Torch the meringue without burning it

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the 118°C syrup with care – it can cause severe burns.
  • Use the torch in a well-ventilated area away from flammable materials.
  • The ceramic beads and parchment paper are very hot after blind baking.
