Assembly and finishing

Mushmosh

As needed Fresh apricots
As needed Greek yoghurt
As needed Roasted blanched hazelnuts
As needed BLOND DULCEY 35%
As needed Demerara sugar
As needed Lemon thyme

Line some 8cm rings with a strip of acetate. Place on a tray with a silpat and leave to cool in the refrigerator.
Make the DULCEY jelly, pour 70g into each ring and leave to set overnight in the fridge.
Spread the shortbread to a depth of 2mm. Using a 8cm cutter, cut crescent moon shapes by cutting one circle, then moving the cutter to the side to create the crescent moon. Using a 3cm cutter, cut out disks.
Sprinkle some demerara sugar on the shortbread before baking.
Bake on a perforated tray with a silpain for around 15 minutes at 300°F (150°C).

Decoration:
Spread the tempered BLOND DULCEY chocolate between 2 sheets of transfer paper. Once it is partially set, use a 8cm cutter to cut out crescent moon shapes. Start by cutting a disk, then move the cutter to one side and cut again to form a crescent moon shape. Repeat using a 5cm cutter. Cut out 5cm disks. Leave to set overnight.

Plating:
Use a scraper to collect the remaining DULCEY jelly from the ring and put it in the middle of the plate. Remove the ring.
Put a 4cm cutter in the middle and use a spoon to empty out the center (keep what you remove to avoid any waste, as it can be melted and reused). Place around 15-20g of apricot compote in the dip.
Place a moon shaped chocolate decoration to the left side of the jelly. Use some yoghurt in a piping bag to stick a moon shaped shortbread on top.
Decorate the shortbread with some small slices of fresh apricot, Greek yoghurt, muesli streusel, roasted hazelnut halves and gold leaf.
Finish with some lemon thyme leaves. Place a 5cm chocolate disk on the right-hand side of the DULCEY jelly. Place a 3cm disk of shortbread on top.
Finish by scooping a quenelle of the apricot and vanilla sorbet and place it on top of the shortbread. Add a little chocolate crescent to finish.
