Assembly and finishing
Make the Amatika 46% crémeux and the Amatika Blanche and coconut whipped ganache a day in advance.
Make the coconut sponge on the day you make your dessert. Pipe 215g of the mix into a 14cm ring. On a baking sheet at 340/355°F (170/180°C) for 6/8 minutes. Once the sponge has cooled, use a piping bag to pipe out 220g of Amatika 46% crémeux. Freeze. Using a mixer fitted with a whisk, whisk the Amatika Blanche and coconut whipped ganache until stiff peaks form. Place the sponge and crémeux insert in the center of a 16cm ring, then pipe the Amatika Blanche whipped ganache all the way around, taking care not to make any air bubbles. Smooth the top of the ring, then add some more ganache, creating a wavy effect on the surface. Trim any excess from the ring’s edges. Freeze.
Once frozen, remove the dessert from its mold and set it aside.
Place a 40×40cm tray for ganache in an oven set to 175°F (80°C). Make the Amatika Blanche coating, then immediately let it run all around the tray, tilting it to one side and the other to level it. Leave to cool for 30 minutes before cutting it into strips to decorate the dessert. If you use the full amount of coating (390g), you can make a slightly thicker and silkier coating. Make the Amatika 46% or Amatika Blanche 35% spray, depending on your preferences, then use at 105°F (40°C) in a spray gun to create a beautiful velvety effect. Finish by gently placing drops of coconut nectar on the top of the dessert.
