Critical Success Points

  • Do not exceed 80°C when cooking the custard for the insert
  • Fully melt the gelatin before incorporating
  • Incorporate the raspberry purée into the chantilly at 32°C to avoid coagulation
  • Assemble without air bubbles before freezing
  • Apply the pearl velvet quickly for a perfect mirror finish

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful with hot surfaces when cooking the syrup and bain‑marie
  • Handle the gelatin with clean hands to avoid contamination
  • Use gloves or a towel when handling the very cold mold
  • Do not leave the oven unattended while baking the dacquoise
