Critical Success Points

  • Reach exactly 60 °C before adding the sugar‑pectin mixture to the nectarine purée.
  • Bake the dacquoise just enough for it to be golden but still tender.
  • Bring the custard to 83‑85 °C without boiling it.
  • Leave the entremet in the freezer overnight before glazing.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot sugar and the custard with care to avoid burns.
  • The chocolate spray is flammable; use it in a ventilated area and away from heat sources.
  • Use a thermometer to avoid overheating the custard.
