Critical Success Points

  • Infuse the vanilla in the cream
  • Make the caramel without burning the sugar
  • Incorporate the gelatin at the proper temperature
  • Dough rest in the refrigerator
  • Blind bake the tart base
  • Whisk the ganaches until thickened without graininess
  • Freeze the ganache dots before assembly

Safety Warnings

  • Beware of very hot caramel: risk of severe burns.
  • Handle the boiling cream carefully to avoid splatters.
  • Use a well‑sharpened knife to cut the dough to avoid slipping.
