Critical Success Points

  • Achieve an amber caramel color without burning
  • Cook the bavaroise to 83‑84 °C to avoid coagulation
  • Whip egg whites to very stiff peaks
  • Freeze sufficiently before unmolding
  • Use the torch for finishing without burning

Safety Warnings

  • The caramel is very hot and can cause severe burns.
  • The bavaroise must be cooked to a precise temperature (83‑84 °C).
  • Use the torch with care, avoid direct flame on plastic surfaces.
