Assembly and finishing

Painted Roses Dessert

Decoration
Tint a little OPALYS to give it a light green color. Temper the couverture. Spread it out between two sheets of confectionery dipping paper and cut it into 4cm leaf shapes. Leave to set.

Plating
Pipe out a dab of Raspberry Inspiration crémeux. Drain the rose petals and dry them gently using a piece of absorbent paper.
Reconstruct the rose head: Start with the smaller petals at the center and work out. Use the lychee jelly to help you stick the petals together. Put a few pieces of fresh raspberry and lychee between the petals as you reconstruct the rose. Use a pastry cone filled with dark chocolate to draw a “stem” on the plate.
Churn the sorbet. Put two chocolate leaves on either side of the stem. Place a small quenelle of sorbet on each of the leaves. Place another chocolate leaf on each of the sorbet quenelles.
