Assembly and finishing
At the bottom of the 14cm-diameter ring, place your domes of still-frozen apricot confit, with the rounded
side facing upwards.
Cover the apricot confit domes using CARAMELIA 36% chocolate crémeux. Fill to the brim and freeze.
Once the disc is frozen, turn it out and coat it with a thin layer of a neutral glaze to add shine to its
appearance. Then, place the disc on the peanut streusel.
