Spray the strips of tart with the hot Absolu Spray Glaze. To finish the decoration, temper some white chocolate. Use a little oil to stick some acetate sheets onto perfectly flat trays. Sift some vanilla powder on top and then pour a little couverture on the sheet and cover immediately with a second sheet and then roll out, spreading the chocolate towards the exterior. Check the thickness. Leave to set at 17°C. Arrange a few fresh strawberries on the tart (see photo), add a few shards of white chocolate and a house logo.
