Critical Success Points

  • Tempering and cooking the egg yolks with hot syrup (step 4)
  • Achieving airy texture in the yolk mixture (step 5)
  • Even layering of ladyfingers and filling (steps 9‑11)
  • Proper chilling time for set texture (step 12)
  • Whipping the topping cream to the right consistency (step 13)

Safety Warnings

  • Hot syrup can cause burns – handle with care.
  • Egg yolks are cooked via the hot syrup; ensure the syrup is hot enough to pasteurize.
